The 2008 National Christian Invitational will provide an atmosphere of intense competition, spirited sportsmanship and sincere fellowship. The stage is now set for a tremendous tournament this March. Past participants have included athletes from 16 states and 3 different countries.

Tournament Format
Professionally staffed and organized, the 2009 National Christian Invitational will provide a guaranteed minimum of four games, consisting of a pool play format followed by a seeded tournament and officiated by PIAA certified varsity officials. Team awards will be distributed to the top two finishers in each division along with individual awards for the All-Tournament Team Members.

Skills Competitions
One of the major highlights of the National Christian Invitational is the individual skills competitions, whether it is the 2-BALL (only schools entering both their boys and girls teams are eligible for this contest), three-point, or slam dunk competitions, these events energize the fans and give the players an opportunity to showcase their skills. 

Where else can you bring your boys and girls varsity teams, cheerleaders, parents and fans and all stay in the same, air-conditioned housing complex. All games will be played on one of our four hardwood floors. This is a one-of-a-kind tournament experience that you won’t want to miss. To register or for more information, call Shane Allen at Family First Sports Park at (814) 866-5425 ext. 217 or email him at shane@thesportspark.com.

Housing Accommodations
If you are going to play in a state-of-the-art complex, you should relax in one as well. All teams have the option to stay in our Housing and Conference Center. This complex, located just 50 feet from the basketball center, features a 420-person dining hall, 116 rooms and a large clubhouse that has everything from arcade games to pool tables and much more.
