Scorekeepers: Oregon Prep Basketball will provide scorekeepers for the book and the clock, but these are players from the school that we are using. These players are doing this as a fundraiser, so we recommend that you have your own score book person sit at the score table to help prevent mistakes. If problems occur, tell the scorekeeper to buzz the referees. Gym Directions: Addresses and location for each school will be posted on our website www.oregonprepbasketball.com along with your game schedule.
