Men's Volleyball tournament
Thursday Nov. 30, 2017
Remember the first rule of SAMS Sports it to be flexible. I just found out that Paul Zoellenger is
Going to be in Utah thus NSP will not be playing in the tournament, So we had to rearrange the schedule on the St Paul Building side of the bracket., Blaine being the co-top seed along with Elm Creek will get a first round bye. The brackets have been changed to reflect the changes
Welcome to the volleyball tournament
All Match's at Two out of three all games to 25 win by two or first to 30. Rally scoring.
Rock /paper / scissors to first serve (winner gets choice serve or side) do it again for Game 3
Substitutions: three choices, determined before each game.
a) Traditional one for one substitution, two players trade at the same serve rotationspot
b) Standard church rotating in and out.
c) Hybrid, You can keep one or more players on the court the whole time staying in
their same service rotation spot and rotate in the remaining serve rotationspots.
(this method was designed to allow a team to have many players participate while keeping
their team competitive)
A team must have at least half the players on the court be LDS church members or siblings
to a Baptized LDS church member.

After two weeks we hav not had a real Futsal game yet. We are not sure if it is for lack of interest of lack of the schedule being communicated. I have been kind of out of it with a funeral and a conference trip, so we will not schedule any futsal games this week, please contact us if you have a team with interest. We will only have a 6 week season followed by the tournament if there is interest. Please text me if your ward has interest Gary 612-202-6393.

I want to have a quick meeting at 8:30 and decide what we want to do.
Playing double headers mean we play each other a lot. There are a couple teams that can play in the tournamnent.
Think about it and let me know your feedback Thursday.

Congratulations Dana Oelkers 2017 SAMS LDS GOLF CHAMPION
. Dana Oelkers became the first 4 time winner of the SAMS LDS GOLF TOURNAMENT Shooting a 4 over 76 that was also enough to on his own win the team competition for Shingle Creek.
The weather was threatening as it rained 20. Minutes before the start. But it stopped and the weather was wonderful until a short drizzle at about the 17 th hole. But it stopped and we were able finish.
Jared Moll from the Maple Grove ward won the "ABD" trophy (anyone but Dana) shooting an 81.
Fun was had by all.
Net year we are tentively planning two tournaments one early in he year . This one will be a four man scramble team competition probably at Hayden Hills golf course, which is one of the easiest courses in the state. (They have a 195 yard par 4). The scramble format means you play as a team everyone tees off and you decide which ball location is best for the second shot, then you alll shoot your second shot from that location. This format on on this golf course might produce your best score ever. It also Isis. Fun for the beginner golfers.

Last minute update
i just talked to the Brook View people and their radar says the weather should be fine.
We will compensate if the tournament is stopped by rain, we will determine the winners by who has the best score compared to par at which ever hole they had to stop. But for now they are letting the carts out and we should be able to finish.

Come for the fun fellowship friendly competition and valuable prizes

Golf tournament update/ volleyball/ futsal schedule week one
Golf:
Looking at accuweather which, since I am a painter I relay on a lot forecasts thunderstorms later in the afternoon or evening, however the chance of rain is only 35 percent until 6 pm and goes to 50 percent from there.
With that in mind let's continue the tournament starting at 2:00 at Brookview, $21 to walk, $31.50 to ride, and we may have to shorten the tournament to 9 holes. Or we will play 9 holes and reevaluate from there.
We will see you then.

futsal,volleyball, golf update
Hi all, I just heard the fair starts tomorrow!! Which means Sept is a week away, which means our sports seasons crank up.
Thursday Sept 14, 7:00 at the Anoka stake center is the Futsal/ men's volleyball meeting. Players and coaches and anyone else interested is invited. We will find out which wards have teams, discuss rules, and set up the first week' so schedule. The games start Thursday Sept 21.Spread the word.
SAMS LDS GOLF TOURNAMENT
Sat. Sept 16, 2:00 (twi-lite rates)
Brookview golf court in golden valley.
New this year we will have team competition! Along with the individual tournament.
How team competition works, each team (ward) will have 4-3-2 or even on player on the team. Everyone plays their own ball and keeps their own score, but the best score of the team on that hole will be the teams score. Not a scramble but low ball for the team score.
For example if there ar four of us and one gets a 6 one gets a 5 one gets a 4 one gets a 3. Each player records their own individual score counting towards the individual competition but the team score will be "3". This was even the novice individual can stay engaged.
We will still have the individual skills competition, and play by " atonement rules".
We have to have firm commitments by Thursday the 14th.
$21 to walk and $31.50 to ride, pay at the course.
Fun fellowship competition, and now teamwork! Spread the word.

. What a great and unpredictable night of basketball. The committee is very proud of it's prediction rate as being almost always right 83.2 % of the time. That all went out the window last night.
Bottom line #8 North St. Paul will be playing #10 Maple Grove for the championship Thursday May 4 7:30 at the Minneapolis (Crystal) stake center.
At St. Paul , in the first quarter final game the top seeded Lake Nokomis continued their streak of bad luck in the tournaments by being even at half time with North St. Paul, but in a game that " more resembled a rugby game than a basketball game, NSP got hot and Lnok. Got cold and NSP pulled away and won handlily.
In the other quarter final Plymouth/Minnetonka and Elm Creek were nip and tuck all game with Plymouth/Tonka winning by one in a game where both teams had chances.
In the Final four game, the two evenly matched teams. They played earlier with Plymouth/Minnetoka winning by one. The game went back and forth with the final 3 minutes lasting about 25 minutes. Trialing by one with 3.4 seconds to go shooting an one and one. They miss the first free throw... however they get the rebound and the followup shot was blocked "Possibly fouled but not called" and time expired.
At Anoka in the first quarterfinal, Second seed TC1 lost a nail biter to Blaine. With 15 seconds to go and trailing by one TC1 drove to the basket missed the driving lay up and the rebound was knocked the up of bounds at the same time by both teams. Fortunately for Blaine the arrow was pointing in their favor. A last second three by Blaine sealed the deal.
In the biggest surprise #10 Maple Grove playing with out their best player, who left for Germany hours before the game, played #3 Shingle Creek who added their best player Dana Oelkers who played sparingly during the regular season to spend more time with his kid.
The game had the feel that Shingle Creek, which lead most of the way, was on the verge of pulling away the whole game. Every time they got a 5-6 point lead Maple Grove would hit a three or convert a three point play to keep it close.
Near the end when Maple Grove had to resort to fouling. The outcome came down to free throws. Maple Grove made almost all their free throws and Shingle Creek, normally very good free throw shooting team, missing many key free throws. Down the the final 15 seconds, Shingle Creek leading by 2 gets fouled shooting a three, thus three free throws to ice the game. However they miss all three!
With fouls to give Maple Grove is fouled, trailing by two with 2 seconds to go. Maple Grove had two excellent shooters they tried to work the inbounds pass to. shingle Creek doubled teamed both shooters, however they left the center unguarded by the basket and the passer saw him hit him with the pass and he scored a layup at the buzzer to send it to overtime.
Controlling the tap and hitting a quick three Maple Grove stunned Shingle Creek in overtime.
In the final four game a very tired and cramping Maple Grove team played a stiff Blaine team to a close finish, with the score tied with 2 minutes to go. Maple a Grove hit a three and made their free throws to win a close one.
Championship game Thursday May 6, 7:30 at Crystal

Tournament update
. They young men's tournament will be interesting, the committee is having a hard time picking the favorite. Of course as always it all depends who shows up. With spring breaks, temple trips etc etc a team Missing key players can go from favorites to also rans.
Andover is the top seed but closely followed by Maple Grove a, and Plymouth.
Shingle Creek and Med. Lake are dark horses. Add a high school player to a team and everything changes.
Eligibility:
* Any baptized member of your ward can play regardless of them playing during the season.
* Non member must have played at least once during the season.
* High school players must be Baptized members of your ward and if there are more than one, (lucky) only one on the court at a time.
*Over time, unlike the regular season where the first overtime is 2 minutes, and the second overtime is sudden death, but you must win by two. In the tournament there is no sudden death we will keep playing 2 minute overtime periods until there is a winner. The first overtime period starts with a jump ball, and the alternating possession resets, additional over times start using the alternating possession arrow.
*. Before each game before the prayer lets establish who are member and who are non members and high school players. Remember only two non members per team on the court at a time.
Good luck to all!
