Tom Goodwin kindly put together a terrific highlight video from this spring Inaugural Port City Hoopla Charity Fundraiser.
Thanks again to all of those who volunteered, attended, donated, sponsored, and played.
While the Hoopla was a fun event, sadly, the war in Ukraine continues and the need for relief services is still great. Donations to the NBBA's venmo handle are greatly appreciated and will go to support the International Red Cross.
Team Maines Wins the Title!
Congratulations to Team Maines on winning this summer's Rec League championship!
They beat Team Elias 52–46 to claim the Rec League trophy!

Port City Hoopla a Success!
Players from the Rec League and the Newburyport High School program joined forces on Saturday, April 2, to show off their skills and raise money for a good cause in the inaugural Port City Hoopla charity basketball tournament.
James Scali scored the game-winning layup off of a steal in the final second of the title game to secure the Hoopla Trophy for Team Odesa.
Twenty-four players were split into three teams and competed in a round-robin tournament held at the NHS gym.
In addition to showcasing many of the city's best high school players, the event raised over $2,000 to support the Ukrainian relief efforts of the International Red Cross.

Playoff bracket
Here's how the playoff bracket looks. First-round games will be played at the Hope on Saturday, 6 March. Game times will be added soon.
Ongoing COVID Safety Protocol
As part of the league's safety procedures, each player will need to complete the following form before entering the gym each week and show a copy of the results (either as a screen shot or printed out):
No spectators will be allowed in the gym during games (sorry about that).
Players arriving for their game will not be allowed into the gym until the previous game has ended and those players have exited. Players waiting for their game to start are asked to not congregate in the lobby area outside the gym. Please stay in your car until invited into the gym.
Players are asked to not bring their own basketballs to the gym on game days. Each team will have a ball to warmup with.
