The approximate age spread was from the oldest in their 20s to the youngest in 8th grade. It was organized round robin, where you play everyone and whoever has the best record wins. I played 5 games between 9:30 and 2am.

It was fun to spend the night in the gym, which we weren't allowed to leave until 8am. Between games we watched DVDs (Shrek, Hoosiers, The One, Snowdogs), and the swimming pool was just downstairs and we went swimming.

A lot of kids brought sleeping bags and slept, but I stayed awake all night.

Two of The LeRoy brothers, Nate Kamphuis and Ryan Buurstra were on the winning team, and each one got a trophy.

The only incident was after the tournament. A group of girls thought it would be funny to TP one of the boy's cars, which they discovered when they left at three am, and they even put cat poop under the car handles so they got it on their hands when they opened the door. They retaliated with road kill on the front porch of two girls and a couple cans of sardines in another girl's car vents.
