Who all will be particpating in this event. It is held June 15-18 I beleive.

Here are the teams that will participate. We may add a few more before Thursday. We lost 7 teams that are going to Frankfort but we gained 22 new teams. There was some teams that got mad because of the referee camp last year. They sent 26 officials to do over 100 games and they needed at least 60. I will say we were not happy with the outcome. I am sure we will get those teams back next year since the camp has assured me that that will never happen again. Ron Dixon of the KIAC will now run the camp. Pools and brackets will be online Thursday afternoon. http://www.playkba.com

Seeing the teams participating, who will compete for the championship? Scott County has got to be the favorite going into it.

There may not be as many teams at The Bluegrass Championship in Frankfort, but the competition sure looks better.

I agree, the quantity looks better here, but the quality looks better at Frankfort. Too bad these two run on the same weekend. I would have to agree that Scott Co. should be the favorite with Shelby & S. Laurel giving them some competition.

I would have to second or third the motion with Frankfort having a higher level of comp. The state tourney in Lexington pales to overall comp as there will be in Frankfort. However, this is summer and summer is where coaches aim to get their programs better. The more games the better if teams advance through the brackets.

Who is playing in the one at Frankfort?

Where is GRC playing this summer and how do they look?

It seems that Clark Co is going to team camp at Western. After talking to a several of the coaches the reasoning was officials. So we changed that as I stated. The same old teams last year was another reason. One coach said they were tired of playing the Lexington public schools and now he went to Frankfort and it seems that they are over there. PRP, Tates Creek. Henry Clay, Lex Cath,Lafayette,Dunbar, Franklin Co and Mad Central are the teams that was playing in AAU last year. This is one of the toughest weekends of the year to get officials. The AAU state tournamnet will have at least 70 there. The UK girls camp will have at least 60 officials there. There was an e-mail sent out yesterday trying to get some officials for this event in Frankfort. Its going to be tough. I take a different look at this than most people. At first I was a little upset that some of my teams from last year went to the Frankfort camp. But as a coach you need to do what is right for your team and this is most important. The eight teams that left I feel was trying to send me a message. Change the format and we did, have enough officials and we do. I believe I will get at least six of those teams back next year. Hey everybody have a good summer and good luck to all the teams. We hope you get something out of your summer games.

It is in another thread. I tried to copy and paste it, but my computer skills are just above :banana:

I see only two Louisville Schools in it this year. I think the low turnout from Louisville has more to do with travel time than anything else. There are games closer to Louisville. The Frankfort event being on of them. Since the Move to lexington it seems like the number of Louisville schools in state AAU has dropped each year.

The reason many louisville teams are not going to be in it this year is because of how the Refs show favorism when there there is a lousiville team playing against a lexington team i know lexington people won't admit it but lets get real.

I would say it is a money thing. To be honest with you. Most of all the officials at the camp are not from Lexington. There was only two from Lexington last year. That is what Lexington teams say when they come to Louisville. This is my 23rd year and I have never seen that type of hatred in AAU. What will the panthers return this year prppride. Mabrey is one of my favorite coaches. I know he knocks the Sweet 16 refs every year but I still respect the guy.

The previous comments were from my son. I try to enjoy the games and not get too caught up in finding fault or excuses. PRP has:

- four seniors-two were starters last year, two did not see substantial playing time.

-five juniors-one was a starter, and all saw playing time with a couple starting on occasion.

-couple of sophomores-not much p.t. so far this summer.

 

We need Al Murry back and healthy. He has surgery on the 13th for a torn ACL. We are also missing Zach Cox who is playing baseball. Brandon Newman (football player) Jr. will be a role player down low.

 

Lex. Cath beat us like a tied-up goat for our first loss this summer. We looked rough at times the last two summers and made it to semi's for state.
