Coach,
One trick I need to point out is after you sign up to receive e-mail notices of new posts you will receive an e-mail from FeedBlitz, make sure you confirm your subscription or you will not get the updates.
Important Announcement --We have decided to extend the All-American Nomination period until Feb 20th. We ask that if you are going to submit a nomination that you use the only form to make sure we get it in time. If we need a DVD we will contact you. http://www.homeschoolbasketball.com/all_american.htm
Additionally we have decided to change the name from the All Star game to the All-American Game.
Also we need team seeding questionnaires filled out by 20th but if you can get it done by the end of this weekend it would really help us out. http://www.homeschoolbasketball.com/team_seeding-08.htm
Team pictures and rosters need to be finished right away or you will miss the program. Here is the information
We have set up an online form for you to submit your team rosters for the 2008 event program. The link is on the homepage and on the 'Register' page from www.homeschoolbasketball.com - When you've completed the online form, you will be directed to e-mail your team photo by clicking on the link provided. Please be sure to specify your team name and division when emailing your team photo. Please also note: Your team information will be printed in the '08 program exactly as it is entered in the online form. So be sure to enter all of your information as you will want it printed.Should you have any questions, please contact me at (405) 701-4008.Regards,Luke McDonald(405) 701-4008

5 Weeks to Nationals
As Nationals quickly approaches we have decided to create this coaches blog to make sure we can get you important information. There will be a lot of information that you will need in order to make your team’s “Nationals Experience” complete.
1) Assistant Coaches – sometimes my e-mails get filtered into junk mail so if you have an assistant or two that you want to add to my coaches list to make sure between you that you get all the e-mails just send me their e-mail addresses.
2) The cutoff for holding spots for unpaid teams is Feb10th after that we will begin closing off divisions as they get to a number that we can close off. If you haven’t paid but are sending a check let me know.
3) All Americans – Varsity age only – please get your nomination post marked by 2/10 and e-mail me so we can make sure none get lost in snail mail without us knowing it. More on All Americans below.
4) Player Registration – Please remember all players must register individually to play at Nationals. The form is on line at http://www.homeschoolbasketball.com/ As of today we have 1450 players registered. Last year we had 2500 pre-registered. The deadline for pre-registration is Feb 15th, so please get the word out to your team it will save them money and eliminate an extra step during Nationals.
5) Team USA – if you have siblings of your team members coming to Nationals you might want to recommend to them that they play on a Team USA. This is great fun and an awesome way to hook those kids in for next year.
6) Seeding Questionnaire is available on line at http://www.homeschoolbasketball.com/team_seeding-08.htm please have them filled out by Feb 20th. Please wait until Monday before filling the form out as we are still fine tuning it.
7) Rooms at the Clarion – I still have some rooms available at the Clarion if you want to stay at the host hotel let me know.
I have had numerous questions about All Americans and the All Star game. Let me take a few minutes and go through the process.
All American Selection –
1) We are currently accepting nominations from coaches through 2/10 (postmarked).
2) The first step will be to work through an initial process that will narrow the field to no more than 90 players.
3) At that point the list of players will be sent to the selection committee (24 individuals from around the country). Each member will divide players into 5 categories of 18 players. 1-5 (5 being the highest and receiving 5 points for this vote).
4) The votes will be totaled.
5) The DVD’s will be used when there are hard decisions for 1st, 2nd or 3rd team.
6) The 1st, 2nd and 3rd team will be finalized and the Pete Maravich Winner will be voted on Saturday morning by the committee after watching the six 1st All Americans play.
All Star Game
1) There will be four quarters of boys and girls basketball. Two quarters will be played by the first and second team and two by the third team.
2) Teams will be divided the first week of March.
3) Coaches will be chosen to coach each of the four teams.
4) Players will play no more than 10 minutes each, so it shouldn’t wear anyone out.
