It’s great to see the Billy Kelly Memorial Tournament return this coming weekend. This is easily the best weekend of juvenile basketball in Ireland with 3 venues being used on Friday with 30 teams competing for the title. Our U17s coached by David Murphy & Carleton Cuff have prepared hard over the last few weeks. Friday will be a busy day with 4 pool games scheduled. Games begin @ 9am on Friday with our first game against Ongar Chasers. 11am will see us compete against Waterford Vikings followed by a 1pm tip off against Phoenix BC from Belfast. Our final pool game is against Labanga.
On another note, congrats to Daryl Cuff (U17) who has been drafted into the Irish U18 squad and made his debut yesterday against Wales.
All going well on Friday, the tournament will move to the quarter finals on Saturday morning.
Also on Saturday before the final, late Chairman Billy Coffey will be inducted into the Cork County Basketball Board Hall of Fame.
Please come out and support over the weekend!!!
