“We wanted to give our Prince George’s County Public Schools an opportunity to play in an arena in their home county, not just at their school gyms or when they travel to a tournament,” said Tommy Paolucci, Division Chief for the Youth Countywide Sports Division of M-NCPPC. “We have this great facility, we’ve done a lot of upgrades to it, but it hasn’t been regularly utilized specifically for the sport of basketball, which it can be,” said Paolucci.
Watch talented boys’ and girls’ basketball players from Prince George’s County, Washington D.C., Howard County, and Anne Arundel County battle it out on the court. The tournament includes five games per day, starting at noon December 28, and 1:30 pm on December 29.
WHAT: In the Water Basketball Battle
COST: One-day adult general admission $15. One day youth general admission $5.
