Break Schedule

There will not be any Monday night practices until after the break, beginning again on the 6th of January. However, we plan to do practice in the elementary gym BOTH Sundays before the tourney as the girls need quite a bit of practice to be ready. Please refer to our blog's calendar if you aren't sure. Also, uniforms were ordered and once we get the invoice, we will send out an email on what is owed. Once the girls have their uniform, please have your girls wear them to practice as well as it makes it easier for scrimmage practice. Thanks!

• Sunday, 12/22, 1:30-3pm, Elementary Gym
• Sunday, 12/29, 1:30-3pm, Elementary Gym
• Saturday, 1/4, Hot Shot Tourney, HS East Gym
  (See blog for game times)
• Sunday, 1/5 - No Practice
• Sunday, 1/12, 1:30-3pm, Elementary Gym

Scrimmages During JV Games

Thursday, February 14th is the first opportunity for the girls to scrimmage during half-time of the B-Team Game. You will need to arrive by 5:30pm. The 3rd Grade girls will be joining with us as they don't have enough players to scrimmage each other. If everyone could plan to wear a white shirt (like the Late Night with the Nuggests shirts) to the scrimmage, that will make it easier to sort out into teams. We will have practice jerseys to put over the tees so they can tell who their opponents are. If you know you are not able to make it on Thursday, please let us know via ladyhawleynuggets@gmail.com so we can prepare. All three dates are on our blog's calendar. See below for details about the scrimmage:

MESSAGE FROM COACH GOTTENBORG: Being a proud participant in the Nugget FUNdamental League you are invited to play at half-time against your classmates of a B-squad girls basketball game. You will be allowed to attend free of charge. Come to the game at the time listed below. Wear gym clothes and tennis shoes, and a shirt designated by your coaches. You will get a chance to go into the locker room before the B-game and listen to Coach Ben Lofgren fire up his B-team before the game. Girls - please sit directly behind the Hawley Nugget Bench in the bleachers and watch the games (your coaches will meet you over there). You will play on the Nugget gym floor at halftime of the first game. You are also invited to stand in line with the varsity team during the introductions of starting lineups and cheer the girls on to victory.

Practice Tonight [ 12-2-13 ]

We still plan on having practice tonight - come if you are able.

2014 Tournaments

We have chosen the four tournaments to participate in, based on their proximity to Hawley and the likelihood of playing against teams with similar experience to our girls. Girls are not required to play at any or all tournaments. There is a cost to participate in each tourney (generally $125/team - depending on committment numbers, we may have one team or we may have two). Please RSVP for each tournament to ladyhawleynuggets@gmail.com 

 

Note: the first two tournaments are two days, but it does not necessarily mean we play both days; however, we do not know what days we would play at this time. Most tournaments are a 3-game guarantee.

• January 4th - 5th: Hawley Hot Shot Tourney (Hawley)
• January 18th - 19th: DGF Rebel Booster Club Tourney (Glyndon)
• January 25th: Gateway to the Lakes Tourney (LPA)
• February 8th: Titan Girls Basketball Tourney (Ulen)
  

Open Gym

Reminder: Open Gym for elementary students is Sunday, 3:30-4:30pm in the high school. Bill Gottenborg was going to follow up as some high school students have been attending the wrong open gym session. Remember to track your open gym attendance at the desk so that you can earn your basketball - attend 5 times and earn your maroon and white ball!
