We have received numerous requests to get back into action as conditions have improved.
Many grammar school players have not had the opportunity to get ready for high school and the freshman and JV only had a limited season. Finally, the graduating seniors were deprived of the opportunity to showcase their talents before colleges. We are pleased to announce we will be holding tryouts for grades 8-12 for our boys' program. The Minutemen teams will play in regional tournaments throughout the spring and we our teams will also be afforded the opportunity to participate in a league through July.
The season will be highlighted by our participation in the AAU's Urban Initiative Metropolitan Championship at the end of July which is anticipated to be the largest and most prestigious event of its kind in NY with live streaming and a commitment by the New York metropolitan newspapers to provide daily coverage over the two week duration of the tournament.
