Florida Flight Round Up

Post by wellington » Thu Apr 28, 2011 4:27 am

Here are a couple of cool Florida Flight updates:

New Blogs: http://flighthoops.com/blog

Videos:
- Training camp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ce1Pou5c-ic
- Recent visit to Avalon Middle School: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vo-aQdQYII4
- "Smash the Court", a marketing concept which involves the Florida Flight showing up to random courts in the community to play against local players.

Thanks for the compliment Wellington!

We webcast one of our practices today. We had player interviews throughout the footage as well. If you didn't catch it live, here's a link:

They are 3 episodes. For some reason, the webcast shut down and restarted twice!

The Bluewave are the WBA team that didn't finish last season. There owner is also the coach of the Jacksonville Slam. Maybe he has the JS owner backing him now.

Alex,

Actually, Kevin Waters is now the coach of the ABA's Jacksonville Giants who are owned by Ron Shoals. From what I know, the Bluewave are no longer in existance. (But then again, I could be wrong.)

The Jacksonville Slam used to be in the PBL before their owner folded the team about halfway into the '08 season.

All I know is that the Flight is playing them twice this year, according to the schedule on their site.

Sorry....meant the Giants. However, the Bluewave are playing this season according to the WBA. IN their forum folder I mentioned them not being removed and he said they were playing again. I assume it will be a filter for the Giants.

The CBL Regular season is 12 games. We wanted a minimum of 8 home games, so when Kevin called me and asked to play a couple of exhibitions, I was happy to oblige. Don't be surprised to see a couple of other opponents added later to our own schedule as well.

As for our league schedule, you'll see an overall standings section, as well as a CBL standings (which may be classified a divisional standings section).
