BOTC is opening our Fall 2013 through Summer 2014 thread covering the Girls 2017 (9th Grade) age group.

Refreshing our Girls 2017 discussion thread.

Does anyone have any constructive information/opinion on the following events:

Brine National Classic - 2017 Only Regional Tryout
Showtime Girls National Spotlight - at Western CT State

And Shannon Smith running Brine

Tryout for the Brine National Classic last year was a joke. The large majority of team were elevate girls at the middle school level and wouldn't you know the owner of elevate was the lead organizer and evaluator. Other girls had personal connections to him as well. You are better off going to a different region for a tryout, maybe not so biased. Or hopefully, the organizers will make changes at the tryouts as he has a daughter that age. The event itself was good, but not any better than other events sponsored by IWLCA.

Showtime maverick is up and coming. Huge, premier event on boys side and I would only think it is going to develop the same way on girls side. Only 2nd year for girls but heard that the first one was successful, well organized and good turnout from coaches.
