A strong brotherhood is developing between the Laurel-Jones County Elite 13u and the Atlanta Select Boys 13u BLACK team, The teams first met last spring at a tournament in Jackson, MS. The Elite coach, Coach Randy Pettis, was among the first to register his team for the "Warm Up for the Nationals".
He stated he wanted to play the BLACK team who defeated them in Jackson. They did and the BLACK team again was the victor. However, during the tournaments the players and their parents mingled with the Atlanta Select crowd, forming friendships that will last for a long time.
Raekwon Pettis was selected the MVP from the Elite in the championship game. We are positive that we will meet Raekwon, Coach Pettis, the Elite team and their parents quite often in the future in friendly competition. We wish them the best and thank them for traveling to Atlanta to participate in our tournament.
