This bunch of incredible people won 10 sets and lost 7 sets over the two days.....and were only beaten by three 16's teams that EACH advanced all the way to the final 8 of the 90-team tournament!!
The team started out 16th, but ended up in 9th.
What an incredible accomplishment for a 15's team.
Our record this season vs. 16's teams: 31-7. Amazing!
And we have SO much left to do.

The Shamrock Festival hosts an annual Shamrock Recruiting Showcase on the Friday night before the tournament starts on nine courts at the Roanoke Civic Center. Our Showcase provides an opportunity for college coaches to see as many athletes as possible in one location.

The 2015 Food/Drink Policy
Some sites have very strict food/drink policies while others may be more lenient. Please be respectful of tournament staff who will provide further instructions at each site. Specifically, the Roanoke Civic Center, Spectrum Sports Academy, and Patrick Henry HS will NOT allow any outside food/drink in the building with the exception of water bottles for players.
* The RCC will be searching bags/purses to enforce this policy upon entrance and there is a separate entrance for players to speed up their entry. Concessions are sold onsite so don't try to sneak in your morning coffee or fast food lunch. :) Also, no chairs are permitted inside Patrick Henry HS but bleachers are provided.
2015 Check in For Teams:
6:00-10:30 - Team Check-In. All teams must bring a completed Team Check-In Form on Friday evening so tournament staff has contact info and hotel info for each team. Click HERE to download the form. If you are unable to bring this form on Friday, please e-mail it to director@shamrockfestival.org or fax it to 540-772-6874 before Friday.
