April 9, 2026, 6:00pm – The schedule for this weekends tournament “Zero Gravity NY Hoop Festival” is now available. Click Here for the Schedule Galaxy Website for games and times. You can also download the Tourney Machine app on your phone and search for “Zero Gravity NY Hoop Festival.”
Uniforms have arrived and are being distributed at each team’s practice. If you did not make practice, your coach will bring it to your first game. Also, please remember that we have a uniform code. No T-shirts or compression shorts, leggings, etc. can be worn under the uniform. Head bands, wristbands, shooting sleeves, etc. are also not permitted. If you are not sure….don’t wear it! Any questions, ask your coach. I am asking that both parents and athletes make a point to adhere to the code. Coach Chris will be at most of the games and does not want to play “uniform cop!” Thanks!
March 27, 2026, 3pm – As posted yesterday, uniforms have not arrived. Coaches will be given some older jerseys that we have on hand for temporary use this weekend. If you ordered a new uniform for this year but have an old uniform from prior years or an older brothers uniform from a prior year, please bring that to the tournament this weekend. Also, please remember that we have a uniform code. No T-shirts or compression shorts, leggings, etc. can be worn under the uniform. Head bands, wristbands, shooting sleeves, etc. are also not permitted. If you are not sure….don’t wear it! Any questions, ask your coach.
March 26, 2026, 7pm – The scheduled has changed for some of our teams for this weekends tournament. For those of you that are new to AAU, the schedule WILL sometimes change.

3. This weekends tournament schedule has not yet been released. We typically will have on the Wednesday before (today) but it sometimes doesn’t come until Thursday. Another alert will be sent indicating the schedule is out with a link to access. It will still be listed on “Tourney Machine,” a web based schedule app. It is also available for your phone. Look for Tourney Machine in your app store.
March 4, 2026, 10:pm – Due to the large volume of athletes that tried out for all age groups and the latest inclement weather that prevented the staff to convene, the final rosters will not be posted until Friday, March 6. A text alert will be sent out prior to the posting to let you know what time the rosters will be available.
IMPORTANT: Before the rosters of the 4th and 5th grade teams will posted, there will be a meeting on Friday evening with all parents of athletes 5th grade and younger. The meeting will be at 6pm on Friday at the Poughkeepsie Day School. Although we really need everyone to attend as we will be discussing the direction of these teams along with the development team, please contact coach Chris if you cannot make it.
