Reasons why teams choose to play in NJB Tournaments
MORE GAMES - All teams will play 3-6 games during all events. The only way your team will not receive at least 4 games is because your club went winless during your first 3 games. Otherwise-your team will play in the championship bracket or for a game that means something.
NO OTHER TOURNAMENT WILL OFFER MORE GAMES THEN NJB!
STOP CLOCK - All contests will be a regulation stop clock game with 8 minutes per 4 periods. Just like a High School game. We do not cheat the players and teams.
NO RUNNING CLOCK!!!
CIF/COLLEGE REFEREES - NJB referees are highly trained with proper evaluations and ratings. Our men and women referees will hustle, and work the court during all games. We have a method for coaches to critique the referees during all events. Your input is important. Our referees come from all over the state of California. They will not work more than 3-4 games in a row. They are fresh and ready to work all contests.
NJB WILL PROVIDE 3 REFEREES FOR ALL FINALS
1ST CLASS VENUES - NJB will play the majority of games at High School and College Gymnasiums. NJB will play some tournaments at the American Sports Center in the city of Anaheim. This is noted as one of the top venues in Southern California. This venus is the home of NJB. Your team will enjoy the facility and you can count on games on time when you play in a NJB event.
NJB WILL PROVIDE EXCELLENT VENUES
GAME MANAGEMENT - NJB will provide quality workers at the score table. They will look professional and work with all teams. A site director will assist with any questions during your stay at each venue. NJB has tournament directors that will be available by cell phone to answer all questions during the event. NJB goes the extra yard to provide excellent service for our teams.
QUALITY SERVICE IS IMPORTANT TO NJB
BEAUTIFUL AWARDS - NJB provides top notch awards/trophies for players and teams. In most divisions-awards will be given to all players who finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. This summer we will be giving Summer Tournament Tee Shirts to Teams when they win their first tournament of the year. Teams will receive a team plaque for 4th, and 5th place finishes. The kids deserve the recognition and they will leave the tournament with a smile on their face.
INDIVIDUAL AWARDS AND NOT A TEAM PLAQUE
TEAM CERTIFICATION - NJB will certify all players and teams for tournaments. It is easy... and this will assure that your club is playing against legal players. Teams may qualify players by grade report card or birth certificate. All teams must place rosters online and present a picture to the game referees prior to each game. This is what the coaches and parents want. NJB will certify all players.
