BC HIGH SCHOOL 26th ANNUAL
2023 GRADE 9 BOYS INVITATIONAL
PROVINCIAL BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS
Wildcard Tournament
Hosted by Abbotsford Senior.
Friday and Saturday Feb 24 & 25, 2023
Latest Update – Friday Feb 24
Schedule change to 1 day only
The Wildcard Tourney, hosted by Abbotsford Senior Secondary, Friday Feb 24 & Saturday Feb 25, is an 8 Team Seeded Single Knockout with 3 Berths at stake. Invitation is based on finishes in Zone Playoffs and 3 Challenge Games. The invite is extended to the highest finishing team in the Zone, if that team declines, the next highest placing team is invited. There are no entry costs for the teams competing in the Wildcard Tourney.
Updates Daily on the Website.
Note 1: Should any last minute team cancellations occur (sickness, travel, etc) in the Provincials, then the next highest finishing Wildcard Team will be offered the opportunity to join the Provincials.
Note2 : Challenge Games were added for this year as VSSAA was unable to complete their League Finals before Feb 22 and it was decided that as a Provincial Tournament, we needed to find a way to include (not exclude) Vancouver teams.
