Ft. Myers, Florida was the site this past weekend of the Youth Basketball of America (YBOA) State of Florida Championships. The Brevard Elite 6th Grade Team has been on a roll and met with some familiar old foes and some new teams all coming to claim the big prize…The 2011 State of Florida Championship!

Brevard Elite’s 6th Grade Team jumped off to a crushing start eliminating teams with 20+ point margins of victory before reaching the quarter finals where things tightened up a bit and the games became battles.

Coach Stu and the 6th Grade Team reached the finals Sunday afternoon with only one objective and that was to return to Brevard County with a State Championship. The final score 52-44 and the Brevard Elite 6th Grade Team is the new 2011 YBOA State Basketball Champions.

“I can’t say enough about this team, Coach Stu and this incredible supporting parent cast, which has set the pace all year with multiple victories in various sanctioned events and championships. We are so proud of this team and respect what they have accomplished – Bill Mobley, Director, Brevard Elite” Go Elite!
