Miss Basketball Shootout Featuring 96 High School Teams June 9-10, 2018 @ Kearney, Neb. I would like to invite your program to join nearly 100 teams from across Nebraska & surrounding states for the 2018 Miss Basketball Shootout. The Shootout offers a unique team camp format that has made it the most popular event in the Midwest! Teams play three pool play games the first day, followed by three tournament games on the second day. With regular stop clock rules, your team will have more real game situations and play teams not on your regular season schedule when they compete in the Shootout. The Miss Basketball Shootout offers a 5 game guarantee, outstanding facilities, organization, experienced officiating crew and more. Our central location allows us to draw teams from all parts of Nebraska, and a number of out-ofstate teams take part each year. Large & Small School Varsity & JV Divisions! The Shootout offers separate divisions for large and small schools to provide the most competitive summer experience. There is also a division for junior varsity and 9th-grade-to-be teams. Real game situations! We play four-8 minute stop-clock quarters, with the clock stopping on all whistles, just like the real season. No running clocks! 5+ game guarantee! All teams play 5 regulation games, with 3 pool games on Saturday, followed by 2 tournament games on Sunday. Unbeatable facilities! The new Kearney High School offers 3 air conditioned courts, along with great facilities at KCHS and Sunrise Middle School. New competition! We draw teams of all sizes from all parts of Nebraska and surrounding states! Play teams that are not on your regular season schedule! Experienced officials! We hire and pay only NSAA registered and certified officials. We have referees that come to Kearney to work from as far as Omaha, Columbus and the North Platte area, including several state tournament officials.

Coaches Comments We had a blast! They were already talking about coming again next year. Loved the 5 game format and new facilities were awesome. Thanks for the t-shirts, it was a great experience all around! - Laurel O Malley, Chambers-Wheeler Central. We absolutely enjoyed the tournament! You can count us in for next year s. - Falcon High School (Colorado) after playing in their first Shootout in 2017. Here are a few comments from successful coaches who ve played in the Shootout multiple times. DAVE LICARI We have attended the Miss Basketball Shootout for the past six years. Some years we have entered both a varsity and a jv group. I believe that it has helped to improve our program. The format lends itself to playing games against teams of your caliber, the referees are of higher quality than any other camps we attend, and the regulation length games are much better than a running clock. I would recommend the Shootout to anyone who has not attended and is looking for a good team camp. BROCK EICHELBERGER We wanted to thank you for a wonderful time at Miss Basketball in Kearney. Our girls took a very positive experience from the weekend and our entire team received valuable game-time experience. Your camp was VERY organized, had exception competition, good facilities and the playing sites were very convenient to get to between games. A camp like Miss Basketball is a camp that will give us the confidence needed to play at our highest level next season! JOHN PERONE Our coaching staff and student-athletes have a great amount of respect for what Doug and his staff do for basketball around the state of Nebraska. From great hospitality at every site to state certified officials, site directors and support staff, we enjoyed our experience in the Miss Basketball Shootout. The Shootout gives us a chance to compete against teams not only from Omaha and Lincoln, but from across the state and the Midwest.
