Team registrations due this Friday!

If you want to play in Idaho's biggest indoor 3 on 3 basketball tournament, please note that registrations are due this Friday, March 5.

We start bracketing teams on Saturday, March 6 so if you want to be sure that you end up in the division of your choice, get your team signed up by this Friday.

Team Captains! Please read

Just a reminder, if you are the team captain (Player 1 on the registration form) you should receive a team verification email. It is absolutely critical that you review the information in this email and make any corrections necessary.

The most important items: be sure that your team is in the correct age group (youth, high school or adult), gender (male, female or co-ed), team height (N/A for youth, 6'0 and under, 6'0 and over) and division (youth, recreational, competitive or elite).

From there be sure that your team members all meet the requirements of your division (if you are in a high school division all players should be in high school, if you are in a co-ed gender bracket you should have at least one boy or girl, if you are 6'0 and under everyone should be under 6'0, etc.)

This is so important because this is how we bracket all teams. What may seem like a simple typo could affect the teams you play against. We rely on your accuracy to evenly match up teams.

If you see a mistake, simply respond to the email with the corrections. We'll take if from there.

If you have not received a verification email (it should be sent to you within 10 minutes of completing your registration) please send an email to service@idahoselect.org with your team name, captain's name and captain's email address.

Other information that is important: Player's 2-4 email addresses (BAM Jam does all communication through email so this should be accurate) and team t-shirt sizes.

Other notes: if you need to add/delete/change a player you can do so via the "PLAYER CHANGE" form available under the "Play" link on the main page.

The normal registration deadline is March 5. However, we are currently on pace to sell out early so if you are considering getting a team in, you may want to register ASAP. The Fast Eddy's BAM Jam is March 13 at Taco Bell Arena.

Wednesday night at Taco Bell Arena

BAM Jam will be at Taco Bell Arena for the Boise State men's and women's double header. The women take on San Jose State and the men take on Nevada at 8:15 PM. Nevada is scoring over 80 ppg this season with four guys scoring in double digits. They also have former CSI player Joey Shaw on their roster.

Great ticket prices are available. To learn more go to www.broncosports.com.

Remember, BAM Jam is Saturday, March 13 and will be THE biggest basketball event in Idaho that weekend. NCAA conference championship games will be going all day at the arena, the Washington Trust Player's Lounge will be in full effect and the best 3 on 3 basketball will be going on all day long! Don't miss your chance to get your team in!

Thank You!

With the 2009 BAM Jam completed and a day to reflect on the event, there is no doubt that this community is the best!

First, thanks to all the volunteers that made this happen. While there are too many to recognize individually, it took a huge effort from all of the BAM Jam operational units. The set up crew was amazing and their creative solutions to a wet set up were crucial. We know you are probably still soaked to the bone! The check in team at Piper Pub, Jacksons/Fast Eddy's Master Scoreboard, volunteer check in, BAM Jam Lounge in the 8th Street Mareketplace, court monitors and marshals, medical and hydration stations, the BAM Jam Store, Regence BlueShield Information booth, LeMaster Daniels contest courts, tear down and clean up crews and our booth set up teams were incredible. Your time, energy and passion were vital to the event's success!

Second, the BAM Jam sponsors were crucial to making this happen. To those that were on board from the start last year and the new sponsors that joined us this year, your support and assistance allowed this great event to take place.

And of course, thank you to all the participants that hung in there through the early rain and finished in the bright beautiful sunshine! You did amazing and, regardless of your final record, you are all champions just for finishing. We look forward to improving this event for you next year (August 6-7) and continuing to make BAM Jam an event you can be proud of!
