Communications for Basketball Nationals Week 2016

Nationals week is a wonderfully exciting time - the culmination of phenomenal seasons for all our teams and "careers" for our seniors.  We want to share the excitement and strengthen our sense of community all week long.  To do that we'd like to share the avenues we've established for us to communicate throughout the week. 

1. Coaches communications with NCHBC - As you have in the past,  communications with the Flatts/tournament organizers are of the utmost importance.  You'll receive all that information at registration as you have before.

2. Coaches communications with the Nighthawks - please text your game scores and any publicity worthy details to Kim Yates at 901-870-2325 and Rhonda Arthur at 901-277-1428. Kim will text messages to the Nighthawk family, and Rhonda will update Twitter and Facebook.

3. Families - Plug into NCHBC social media in whatever ways you prefer.  They are on Twitter, Facebook, their website, and email. They will always have the most current and reliable brackets and gym information.

4. Families - Plug into Nighthawk social media. Our twitter is MPHS_Nighthawks.  Feel free to tweet scores, game updates, anything positive @MPHS_Nighthawks. Our FB will be kept updated as well.  Please share it and our Twitter with your family and fans at home.

5. Families - Visit the memphisnighthawks.blogspot.com often to stay plugged in for all the details, photos, and videos - all things Nighthawks will be found here all week. 

6. Teams - Team moms/coaches/families stay in touch with one other all week.  Be sure you've shared phone numbers with everyone. At some point during the week, either you'll need help or someone will need your help.  Let's be sure to be there for one another. 

Please remember that if you have any issues regarding the games or the tournament, do not contact the tournament organizers yourself.  Brian Wheeler is the only point of contact for the Nighthawks with the tournament organizer.  He is working with Sean to be our advocate for the week.  You can reach Brian at 901-237-8833.

AND LAST but NOT LEAST -  let's work to keep all our communications positive this week.  It's been a phenomenal season, and I'm sure this week will be the grand finale we've all been working toward.  Please don't take to social media to vent your frustrations but to share all the positive and fun moments of the week. 

Thank you and GO NIGHTHAWKS!!

We miss being there with you, but are looking forward to keeping up with you through these communications all week.


Sean and Ronda Berry and the rest of your Nighthawk family at home
