2018/19 PME Tier 1 Boys Basketball Schedule
We are in the Boys Comp League West. We play teams from the following schools:
Alouette, AR #2, MRE, Davie Jones, Fairview, Edith McDermott, and Laity View.
The season runs from the weeks of January 21st – February 27th for a total of 6 games. Half of the games are played on Wednesdays from 3:00-4 :00/4:15. Coach Kelsey Birth of the Ridge-Meadows Steve Nash Basketball Program will be coaching the competitive boys team this year with sponsorship and support from Ms. Abdulla. Team members are expected to wear their full gym strip to every game, into which they should change in our change rooms before leaving for away games. Ms. Adulla will distribute school jerseys at the team meeting before departing for away games or just prior to our visiting team’s arrival. Team members are kindly asked to inform Coach B. or Ms. Abdulla of their expected absence as far in advance of a game as possible.
As per the permission form, parents are responsible for arranging rides to and from away games. Coach Birth or Ms. Abdulla may be unable to provide rides.

Playoff Information:
Regular season games will end on Feb 27th and playoffs will begin the next week. The enormous amount of competitive teams necessitated their division into east and west. This means that for playoffs the top four teams in each division will play each other:
East #4 @ West #1; East #3 @ West #2; West #1 @ East #4; West #2 @ East # 3
The winners of these games will play each other in a reseeded format, which will set up for our final and consolation game. The finals will be held March 12 (Tuesday) at Westview. More information regarding dates and times for semi-finals and finals will follow closer to the end of the regular season.
