There are several divisions of competition for the tournament including: sixth-seventh grade combined, eighth-ninth grade guys, eighth-ninth grade girls, tenth-twelfth grade guys and tenth-twelfth grade girls.
Open divisions include: all star, competitive, recreational and senior stars (40 years and older).
At the tournament, every player will receive a T-shirt and a minimum of three games, with double elimination.
According to director of Joshua House, Jim Kilmartin, there will be a dunk contest again this year and separate three-point contests for adults and teens.
Kilmartin said he is expecting at least 60 teams this year. He said it is a great fund raiser for Joshua House, as well as a great community event. Last year, it is estimated more than 500 people visited downtown Tyrone during the tournament.
