Applications and Schedules
The 3rd Annual Pre-Season Challenge will be held on April 9 & 10, 2011. The Pre-Season Challenge is designed for the region's top travel programs to prepare for the spring evaluation weekend. It also gives players on hand an opportunity to be ranked by the JumpOffPlus.com staff and possibly receive invitations to either the Peach State Fab Five Camp or the Peach State Jr. Fab Five Camp both of which are NCAA-certified. This will be a great way for travel teams to get ready for the upcoming April evaluation period.
