Attention: no talent required

Some questions we've been getting a lot of lately is do you have a division for 40 year olds? Or, do you have a division for out of shape guys that aren't very good? Or even, do you have a bracket for people that used to play but haven't touched a ball in two years?

The answer is simply, yes. We have to or we wouldn't have a place to play! When we set up the brackets, our goal is match up teams as equally as possible. So if there are teams that are of a similar age, ability, or several other variables on the registration, we'll do our best to get you in there. As the BCS has proven, no system is perfect. But we'll do what we can to match you up appropriately.

Attention: talent coming

It looks like BAM Jam is going to host some serious talent this year as defending Hoopfest champions, Green Mountain Construction, will be competing in the elite bracket. Check the article from the Spokesman-Review.

The champs, with Chris Allen shown here, will have to hold off fellow Hoopfest final four team, Bodybuilding dot com.

Who will take the championship? Will an unknown sneak up and snatch the title? Who knows, but this one is going to be fun!
