An Ordinary Shoe Question

In my experience, I can only ever find the Ref Zigs before the season, like in August and maybe September (in limited sizes by then). It seems they only make them for the preseason gear-up period and...

I don't really understand it. I am a dual member and pay dues to our board, but apparently my home board controls all my information related to IAABO and (presumably), the CIAC. I don't pay or...

Thanks for the reply and insight.

Does the camp enforce discipline rules (i.e. 5 fouls/2 T's = DQ)? IF not, I think this is one of the main problems with these types of camps - no consequences for...

I am very rarely correct on the forum, but I knew I was correct because I remember reading this years ago and saying "that's weird".
