Referee Being Body Slammed ...

Not that the refs reaction was OK, but I must say... Good work by game management to keep that guy taking video away. But what can you expect in AAU?

As one who has officiated in over 45 AAU, YBOA, USSSA, AYBTour, and PAL Boys' and Girls' National Championship Tournaments and at least twice as many regional qualifying tournaments for some of these and other organizations, I am going to ask that we do not refer to travel team tournaments as AAU tournaments but refer to them as travel team basketball. The reason being is that AAU has issued press releases that it will take legal action against those label travel team basketball tournaments as AAU when it could be well be a tournament sponsored by YBOA, AYBTour, NAYBTour, or any number of other organizations that sponsor such tournaments.

Thanks,

MTD, Sr.

Was that an AAU tournament or some other random organization's tournament?

It was just a tournament, not really anyone associated with AAU to my understanding. There was a couple of things going on with the girls and boys this weekend in Indy. I was at another site working a camp. We heard about this Saturday night. I am not sure if one of the shoe companies were running this or not.
