Bedford Classic Basketball Tournament begins this week

The Bedford Minor Basketball Association (BMBA) is proud to announce that the 22nd Annual Bedford Classic Invitational Basketball Tournament will take place again this year from March 3-7, 2010.

We are excited to host what is known as the largest Minor Basketball Tournament for both boys and girls in the entire country.

For five days close to 1,000 players, ages 8-15 years old, from over 90 teams from the Maritimes will be participating in this highly competitive tournament.

Since its inception in 1989, the Bedford Classic has welcomed players of all ages and provided an opportunity to compete against teams of similar ability.

We will engage over 13 different facilities, 250 volunteers, 224 coaches, 74 officials and 3400 parents/spectators for this event over the five-day tournament.

Bedford Minor Basketball Association is one of the largest basketball clubs in the Province with 30 teams playing in the Halifax Metro Basketball Association.

We are looking forward to hosting such a wonderful community based event once again this year.
