The Anne Thorius Award

I`m glad to be able to present the award to the best player in the tournament as "The Anne Thorius Award".

Michigan has given her a wall of Anne Thorius thats greatness
Anne is one of, if not the greatest danish womens basketball player of all time and I couldn`t come up with a more deserving name for this award.
Anne`s leadership, will and smartness in the game of basketball took her on long succesful trip around the world as a player. She lead Michigan Wolverines in assist for all her 4 years at college and was named Michigan's Most Outstanding Player and Defensive Player of the Year awards, and was drafted by Orlando of the WNBA.

"I had the pleasure of seeing Anne Thorius play and she had a presence on the court and she impacted every game in her own way with great leadership and hardnosed attitude towards the game. She would guide here co players in the right direction and if that didn`t work she would find some way to get them to fullfil the gameplan. In many ways I think Anne was what most coaches dream about, a player that made the team and you as a coach so much better without a demand to score a million points every night. She led and you would follow most of the times into greatness"

Finally some news

Invitations has been delayed because of different reasons, but now we have cleared the weekend 14-16 september and two gyms are our to use for the tournament.


NEW for 2012 is that girls and boys 98 will play the same weekend and a total of 16 teams will play in two of the best gyms here in Horsholm, Denmark.

Also new is that will will use 14-16 of september instead of intended first weekend in september, due to that our federation dont allow anything else than education that weekend.

I hope that this doesn`t stop interested team in coming here this year.

Group games will be played full time 4*10 minutes and all play off games on sunday the 16th will be played 4*8 minutes. All teams play a total of 5 games during this weekend.

We hope to get same international level of referees as last year, where we had 4 top european referees from Poland. The level of the teams combined with the level of referees and stats, DVD recorded games is a formula for a great weekend.

Sincerely
Andreas Holmgran, Tournament organizer (coach boys & girls 98 Horsholm)
