U15 & U16 ( Nike ) Girls Premier Showcase Teams Begin Play Wednesday at 2010 Nike Nationals
Six years ago, Nike decided to sponsor a tournament at the end of the summer travel basketball season that would feature the top U16 showcase / travel teams in America. The Fairfax Stars have been one of the teams invited every year to participate. This year, in another new dimension, Nike has added a U15 Division.
The Fairfax Stars U16 Girls Nike Elite Premier Showcase team will be one of only 20 teams across America that will compete, with round robin pool play competition beginning on Wednesday morning.
The Fairfax Stars U15 Premier Showcase team will be one of only 16 teams from across the United States that were invited to participate. They too will begin round robin pool play competition on Wednesday.
Last year, the Fairfax Stars U16 Girls Nike Elite Showcase team advanced to the semifinals of the Gold Bracket, a tremendous tournament for that talented group of student-athletes.
More than 500 college coaches are expected to attend the tournament.
Good luck ladies and GO STARS!
