The Tournament of Champions Classic- in Peoria
Hey guys, my name is Van I am from Peoria. Thought I would come let you guys know about a huge event coming into Peoria this Thanksgiving.
I've been notified from a reliable source that there will be a basketball tournament over Thanksgiving weekend held in Peoria this year. The Tournament of Champions Classic will consist of some of the top basketball players and teams in the country. There are three different tournaments of four teams, who will play in a round robin format. Then there will be a shootout with about 10 teams playing.
These teams are top teams from all over the country including Illinois, Florida, Maryland, Georgia, Texas, Arizona, Missouri, Arkansas, and Wisconsin. There are 18 players in the top 250 in the country right now. I will give you full information after the press conference on Tuesday.
Games will be held in both the Fieldhouse (Bradley's old court) and at Carver Arena (Bradley's current court, where IHSA state games are played). There will be a press conference releasing information on this next Tuesday, the 29th. After the press conference I will keep you updated with everything I know, including more details about players, teams, and matchups to watch for. This should be a monsterous basketball event for the community and I cannot wait.
Tickets should be available after the press conference for Friday and Saturday, whole day passes being 20 dollars and session (4 or 5 games)passes being 12 dollars. Obviously this is a huge event and a huge deal so get over to Peoria and check out all this talent!!!
