The Body and Mind Kent Crusaders are pleased to announce that the Crusader Cup 3 on 3 tournament will be returning for a second year. The Crusader Cup will take place on Saturday, 23 September at Body and Mind, Canterbury High School.

The event will run from 12:00-6:00 with registration starting at 11:30. Body and Mind’s outdoor court is a full size court, providing much more space than last year’s event. Teams can pre-register using the attached form or register on the day. Spaces are limited though so confirm your place as soon as possible.

This year we will be running Under 15, Under 18 and Open divisions. There will be EB merchandise for everyone who takes part and prizes for winners of each division, including a cash prize for the winners of the Open division (minimum £75, increased if over 8 open teams register).

This event is an ideal pre-season warm-up for the many teams across Kent gearing up for EBL, CVL, Medway and East Kent competitions. Discounts available for any club that registers 3 or more teams in the same division or 5 or more teams across all divisions.

Kent’s premier men’s team, the Body and Mind Kent Crusaders will be on hand throughout the day, refereeing games and organising the event. This is your first chance to meet the Crusaders new signings before Kent’s opening game of the season, Saturday, 30 September at 6:30 at Body and Mind. Kent will be hosting the Southampton Trailblazers in the first round of the National Cup before starting their Patron’s Cup campaign the following week when they host the Plymouth Raiders II.

Head Coach Jesse Sazant stated, “This event is really important for us. It’s a great way to kick off our first season in Division 2. We’re sure the Kent basketball community will support it well.”

Due to securing a venue so close to the event, we would appreciate you passing this on to anyone who may be interested as soon as possible. Please contact Jesse Sazant on 07765 218457 or jessesazant@kentcrusaders.co.uk for more information.
