Winners advance to Championship games. Cadet and Elementary divisions first and second seeds will play for Championship. Championship games are March 9th at Laurel Highlands Middle School.

Many of you that are new to the league are asking about church slips/attendance rules.  A player must turn in a church slip which is provided on this website and available at the front desk.  Or you may turn in a church bulletin that has the player's name and signature of a church Pastor, Sunday School teacher, Youth leader, or church representative.  This slip or bulletin can be from any church that the player attends.  Each player must turn in two slips per month which means that they must attend church or a church activity twice a month.  Also in order for a player to play in the tournaments, they must play in at least 50% of the games.  The blank church slips are available under "Forms" and then "Handouts" on this website.

In case you were wondering what we are doing at mid-court before each game, we are reading a brief statement to the coaches and two Captains about what is expected as a participant of the FCCBL.  Please read this.
