Teams
Please assure your kids get the most coverage possible by sharing scores and stats. Send pictures of both pages of the scorebook by midnight each night to centralgasports@gmail.com, and/or post scores and stats (please use players’ names and not social media handles, since many give no indication who the player is, thus stifling their accomplishments).

Each night’s scores and info are in the daily Scoreboard the morning after games.
