Tampa Bay Strong Dogs News Release


Harlem, NY. The ABA Harlem Strong Dogs announced today that they will offer a discount for its second tryout camp for the second season. The tryout camp will take place on Saturday, October 15th at City College, 138th Street and Convent Avenue in New City and on Sunday, October 16th at Medgar Evers College located at 1150 Carroll Street in Brooklyn. The tryout will take place starting promptly at 9am both days.

Here's your chance to register in advance and only pay $85 instead of the $100 fee at the door. Have your payment postmarked no later than Thursday, October 13th to take advantage of this discounted rate. All pre-applicants are required to send a player waiver form and player information form downloadable from the Harlem Strong Dogs website - www.harlemstrongdogs.com enclosed with a non-refundable money order or cashier's check that should be made payable to Kaizen International, LLC, 350 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2824, New York, NY 10118. All other walk-in applicants are required to pay $100 at the tryout facility payable in cash, money order or certified check made out to Kaizen International, LLC. No personal checks will be accepted.

Tryout fees will be refunded if the player makes the official opening game roster. Native New Yorker and former Brooklyn Prep, Fordham Ram, Buffalo Brave and NBA Atlanta Hawk General Manager and Head Coach Kenny Charles enters his second season at the helm of the Harlem Strong Dogs. Coach Charles and staff will be evaluating players who no longer have collegiate eligilibility and are qualified under guidelines to play professional basketball. "This will be a great opportunity of a lifetime for players to demonstrate their professional ability," said Coach Charles. By the end of the season, over a dozen competitors have been invited back to training camp later in October for another look before finalizing the roster for the opening game in November.

The players who passed the first tryout will be exempted from paying the tryout fee for this second tryout. For more information, email info@harlemstrongdogs.com, call 212 594 6529 or visit www.harlemstrongdogs.com or www.abalive.com. -
