Rainmakers make ready for weekend of basketball

A weekend of high tempo high school basketball is on the way, as the Charles Hays Rainmakers prepare to host three Northwest Schools in their Shootout Tournament.

The Prince Rupert high school squad will see action three times over Friday and Saturday.

With Hazelton opening up the weekend with a tip off against the Rainmakers at 7:30 on Friday night.

Saturday, Charles Hays will play long time rival Caledonia at 11:45, a match which if history is any indication should be one of the showcase match ups of the weekend.

The Rainmakers then have a turn around with a match up with Mount Elizabeth of Kitimat at 1:30. PM.

All Games this weekend take place at the Charles Hays Secondary School Gymnasium on Prince Rupert Boulevard.

The 2 days of basketball offers up the first major test for the Rainmakers squad of the year, as they set course for another run for a zone championship and possible trip to the Provincials next March in Langley.
