Due to the ongoing concern regarding COVID-19 Coronavirus, there will be no participation in tournaments until further notice.
Ares Basketball is following California’s recommendation of not attending events that hosts 250 people or more. On game days, tournaments can easily have 250 players and spectators come through. By not participating, we help reduce the chance of exposure. We will continue to follow the advice of our state representatives and will continue to reassess the situation as more information becomes available. Please be aware that information is rapidly changing and will update you all as it becomes available.
