NEW BASKETBALL JAMBOREES
TO HELP HALL OF FAME:
Starting with the
2010-11 high school basketball season, Nebraska schools have the
authority to hold basketball jamborees, with the Hall of Fame a financial
benefactor.
Dates: November 22 to 27, 29 & 30, 2010. Game shall involve only
Nebraska schools and varsity teams only.
Format:
Schools may schedule one game (four 8-minute quarters) against one school
or two 8-minute quarters against two other teams, all played on the same
day. Results of Jamboree games will not be counted into the school's
regular-season record, nor will such games count toward a school's
wild-card averages.
After expenses, receipts

The Hall of Fame officially kicked off its capital fund drive
with a goal of $1.5. Thanks to a sizeable donation by a person preferring anonymity, the drive has reached $500,000.
The goal has been determined as a minimum requirement to provide an entertaining, modern presentation of Nebraska high school sports' past in the 7,000 square foot area.
Fund drive chairman is Steve Johnsen, director of the the Nebraska Coaches Association, also officed in the NSAA complex. For more information or to make a contribution, please contact Johnsen (steve@ncacoach.org)
or
Randy Bates, Executive Director or any of the board members listed elsewhere in this website (board).
