TOP 10 EVENTS OF THE SUMMER

Have you enjoyed your break? June is typically the month in grassroots basketball, we get way from the game for a minute. Top players go to the big time camps while the rest of your teammated go to team camps across the country. Grassroot coaches are catching up on housework and their wives( so i am the only one that has a wife that fuss during AAU season?).

This is also a time for us to get prepared for the upcoming July grassroots schedule. We are 2 weeks away from another busy July. College coaches will be in almost every section of the country looking at the top talent. If you are a high school junior, this is your interview for college. Take advantage of it. With all that being said, here is a look at the top events of the summer.

 

1. (LEAGUE FINALS) ADIDAS GAUNTLET JULY 8-11, NIKE PEACH JAM JULY 8-12, UAA FINALS JULY 15-18

The state of Georgia will be the host to all 3 of these major events. Adidas will take the top 32 teams in their gauntlet finals at North Gwinnett High.  UAA will take place at Suwanee Sports Academy with the top 16 UAA teams.Nike will assemble in Augusta with its top 24 teams. When these shoe companies host tournaments,best believe there are some more events close. PREDICTION: ADIDAS WINNER, TEAM LOADED VA, NIKE WINNER, GEORGIA STARS, UAA WINNER CANADA ELITE

2. LAS VEGAS FAB 48 JULY 22-26

This event will attract 200 teams at the 17u level. Alot of the top UAA and west coast teams will attend this event. If you been apart of Grassroots basketball for a while, doesn’t this event remind you of the Adidas Big time tournament?

3. PEACH STATE SHOWCASE JULY 15-19 AUGUSTA,GA

Somebody explain to me why this event is not going on during the peach jam? Nevertheless, this will be a top notch event. Most of the top southern teams will be at this event. Last year, over 150 teams attended this event.

4. AAU GOLD SHOWCASE JULY 22-26 LOUISVILLE,KY

Let’s pause and have a moment of silence for Orlando, Florida….. Orlando use to be the site for the AAU nationals and super showcase events. In its 2nd year in Lousiville, AAU is losing some of its luster. Mainly because more and more vents are appearing in the south. Nevertheless, the gold showcase will feature the top 64 teams in America. Lousiville will definitely be a place to be in the last period.

5. KC HARDWOOD CLASSIC, JAYHAWK INVITATIONAL, POUND THE ROCK SHOWCASE, SUNFLOWER SHOWCASE JULY 22-26

Kansas City here I come. Kansas City has become  the Vegas of the midwest. Most of the midwestern teams will be in Kansas City.

6. HOOP GROUP SUMMER JAM FEST JULY 17-19 SPOOKY NOOK,PA

The top event in the East Coast. Over 100 teams in this event annually. The top east coast nike and adidas teams will be in this event.

Shun Williams puts on one of the top events in the country. Some of the top shoe companies teams that didnt make it to their league finals, will be at this event. Last year, this event was home to Young Legends, Team Thad, CP3, Heat Check, and Louisiana Elite. Southern teams, this an event you want to catch.
