Meet the Team Night – Varsity & JV Boys Basketball
A very special event for the Manchester basketball program will be held on Friday, December 6 from 6-7:45 pm.
“Meet the Teams Night is one of the most important events of the season for our basketball program,” said head varsity basketball coach Mike Ahrens. “Last year, we did this but didn’t open the doors to students or the rest of the community. This year, we are inviting all and are confident we can bring exposure to our teams and generate needed funds for equipment, team functions, and more.”
This event will be held at the Manchester High School gym and will include ALL 2019-2020 basketball team members, from 7th grade through varsity, along with the entire coaching staff.
Covered during the event will be:
- MHSAA new rules and changes
- Youth Clinic registration table
- Coach Ahrens will lead a Dutch mini-practice
- Intra-squad games
Meet the Teams Night is planned to showcase the basketball program to their fellow students and the wider community. It is designed as a fund-raiser for the program. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door only; donations to the program will also be accepted and all proceeds from the evening will benefit the MHS basketball program. Admission for adults is $2; Students $1; all team members from 7th grade to varsity level are FREE.
“We are excited to be kicking off our boys’ basketball season this Monday, November 18th,” Ahrens added. “Our summer camps were a success with our numbers increasing as well as an increased community interest in the basketball program. At the moment we have 17 players on our seventh-grade roster!”
Come out and cheer on our Dutch basketball teams at this special event, and support the growing popularity of hoops in Manchester!
