Holiday Camps

Don't forget about the upcoming holiday camps—Sidney Mines, Dunk Star, and Southwest Metro!

Rockets Breakup

Even with the rain there was over 400 people attended our breakup party and it was a great event – there are pics and videos on Instagram. I cannot thank all the people that volunteer on the day you are truly amazing people so thank you so very much. You truly do make a difference to the day.

Lastly, come out and support your teams this weekend, as we have 32 teams competing in the finals.
