NY Metropolitan AAU registration up 1281 to date over last year and 415 in Boys Basketball. Proud of that growth and we are not done for this membership year.#aausports, #aauboysbasketball

One last story of the day– Two people who have done so much for AAU in New York and have been there from the beginning are Rosemary Nies of Lightning and Dwayne Mitchell of the Gauchos. They are great friends and both truly represent loyalty to the AAU and youth basketball.

For the past 24 years, NY Metropolitan AAU Boys Basketball has hosted Championships Monday on Memorial Day. We use this day to both honor our military veterans as well as the AAU Basketball here in New York. This year, we experienced the most successful event ever.

Attendance was tremendous as Island Garden was packed all day and into the evening. Games started promptly at 9:00 AM and continued until 7:30 PM. The excitement easily compared or exceeded any other sports event. The talent and team play were amazing.#aaubasketball
