[quote name="Aces_Full" post="1023844" timestamp="1310413909"] All those kids suiting up for HF next year?  If so, let me be the first to say congrats on the district championship.  [/quote]Thank you! I think there were two kids not from the HF area playing that day. Can someone just give us the trophy early? ;D

No Little Dribblers to help get the little kids learning fundamentals. Heck, Vidor doesnt even have a rec center or outdoor basketball court any longer.  Pretty sad, really. [/quote]Okay, but please let HF enjoy our win against Vidor yesterday. Yes it was a summer league game but at this time we gotta take any victories we get now ;D [/quote] That wasn't exactly HF grinding out the win vs. Vidor's summer league team.  Looked more like Elite Red AAU squad squeaking out the W.  [/quote]okay next time, we'll make sure the Jerseys have HF written on them.

That cant hurt for sure. I actually saw that team play and they have a nucleus of players that can make a difference, so I wouldnt rule HF out of anything just yet. Its gonna take some great coaching and motivating to be sure.  Heck, if I were a  HF player and reading this, I would work harder to prove the negatives wrong.  [/quote] They have a great coach he will have them ready to play. [/quote]No doubt. They will be ready. Love his passion for the game.

That move would get his 2 further in the playoffs than any HF team will go.  :D [/quote] :D We would have killed Nederland Saturday. The time has arrived. Horn power baby-yyyyy!! [/quote] Which Nederland? You cant be talking about the varsity.. [/quote]Oh yeah! The varsity. I know its going to be hard for yall to get use to it ;) [/quote] Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Thanks for the early morning laugh Dove! [/quote] ;D ;)

WOW!  What an accomplishment at such a young age. I'm sure all of S.E. Texans are proud of her and representing this area on an international stage.

[quote name="team first" post="1023606" timestamp="1310324227"] Heard that H.F. almost lost to  Vidor, is this true?   It's called reality. not message board hopefuls. [/quote]What? The game wasn't even close. You guys better start believing.  ;)

Kids just gotta buy into a winning attitude. Not sure if that has happened.

HF could have beaten the Nederland teams yesterday ;D

Bummer! [/quote] I have no control over when this tournament takes place.  ::) These dates have been in place for over 2 months now. ;) [/quote]just when I was beginning to accept you in our circle

[quote name="CATMAN" post="1023362" timestamp="1310183798"] I thing HF will be in the playoff this. ;D ;D ;D ;D [/quote]Thanks CATMAN. One of few true believers. Thanks! ;)

I hope Sour Lake is registered on GPS.

So I guess this means you're not gonna change the dates huh? Bummer!

I need for y'all to change the tourney dates to the following week. 14th-16 the are not possible for a few players

I get golf confused with polo ;D

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1023005" timestamp="1310091508"] Sorry Dove, it won't happen this year! HJ, Silsbee, and WOS will be the teams playing in the state playoffs. Santa has spoken! [/quote]You better make sure Silsbee can beat HF this year. No more cake walks.

Depends on the players skill level. The problem I see is that many/most players don't have the fundamentals (dribbling, shooting, & passing). I'm an advocate for kids that age playing a lot of 3v3 basketball.
