Overview
2008
Tourney Coverage
IAABO Board #134 has been sponsoring a
Girl's Invitational Christmas Basketball Tournament every
year. The teams are selected from IAABO Board #134 service
area which consists of Anne Arundel, Howard, Prince George’s,
Charles, St. Mary’s Counties and neighboring
jurisdictions featuring top-ranked teams. Our selection
process is extensive in an attempt to secure top teams in the
area. In the past, we have had teams from Anne Arundel County,
Northern Virginia, D.C. and Baltimore City.
2006 was our 36th tourney year.
The entire tournament has featured eight of the top teams in
the metropolitan area. The first three tournaments were held
over George Washington’s birthday holiday in February, as
this was the only time girl’s games could be worked in.
At the time, girl’s games were not involved with Title IX
and girls only played about 12 games per season. The first
ever champion was Regina High School (Suitland, Md), a school
that is now closed.
