Trying to host a 16 team girls tourney and a boys tourney at same time using just 3 gyms is the biggest issue. It's why they have stayed bracket play all this time. Easier to schedule games and less money to spend. This is not on one person. BISD has a committee that sets the tourney up. All the BISD coaches are involved plus a few others. YMBL just serves as a host and provides the volunteers to work the tourney. Neither (BISD or YMBL) want to kick the girls or the boys to the curb and just do one tourney. They want to keep it on the same week, easier for both parties involved. No one wants to face the "gorilla" in the room. I knew from the start that when they started putting the girls tourney with the boys tourney, it would eventually cause problems. IMO, it should be on separate weeks. Also, BISD/YMBL is at the mercy of Lamar if it wants to use their facilities. It may be time to use different facilities if they want to continue to keep these two tourneys on the same week. There are other issues that has caused the boys tourney to decline, but I will not get into those. Bottom line, no one wants to play a 3 day tourney and only get 3 games. Really a waste of time.

You know the reason. Gotta please the "popo".

Method to the madness. Just trying to show my support to the "support police".

It is SATCH JV. One of the biggest reasons why they don't go to pool play is because they host the girls tourney at the same time. They have 16 girls teams. They would have to use some high school gyms to get all the games in if went to pool play. it seems they just don't have enough volunteers or just don't want the extra headache with hosting more games. Also, there are 7 other local tourneys (20 in all that we cover) that take place next week. Several teams that have played in the YMBL in past have chose other tourneys to play. Reasons?? I have been told several. BISD/YMBL just needs to either split the weeks for the girls and boys tourney, either just do a girls or boys or go to pool play and limit the girls tourney to 12 teams. This way you could do pool play for both boys and girls and still play at Montagne, McDonald's and Ozen HS. But hey, what do I know about running tourneys.

With only 8 teams, why not split them in two 4 team pools to get more games. You could play at least 5 games with an 8 team pool play tourney.

Sadly, this tourney is nothing like it used to be. Only 8 teams, down from 16 just a few short years ago. Each team only gets 3 games, 1 per day. Sad, very sad. [Hidden Content]
