Week 1 Update & Annual Food Drive
Connecticut Basketball Family Members:
The wait is almost over… Three final reminders as we head into weekend play…
1. Our Annual Food Drive Is This Weekend
Details are below, but participation is simple:
  • Whether playing at home or away, please have your child bring dry goods to the game.
  • When they arrive at the gym, all they need do is drop off the dry goods behind the scorers table.
  • Our Club Presidents and Coaches will find a volunteer parent — hopefully you — from your town to drop the food off at the nearest food pantry (and take a few pictures of the kids).
2. Game Day Issues/Reminders
  • Home team wears white; away team wears their colors. (For neutral-site games, please check the schedule to see whether you are home or away.)
  • Three coaches are permitted on the bench, but — only one coach should be communicating with the referee, and your scorekeeper does not count against bench coaches.
  • All technical fouls are reported to the Executive Committee; coaches who are ejected must serve a mandatory three-game suspension.
  • Scorekeeping. Per CIAC rules, the home scorekeeper is the official scorekeeper.
3. Remember the Prime Directive
  1. Be the bigger person.
  2. Be the answer in situations when tensions run hot.
  3. Always communicate with respect.
Onward Together
