The New York Knicks are in the process of developing the “Knicks College Alumni Association Basketball Tournament.” The New York Knicks would like to establish and build new relationships with the NYC alumni associations; as well as providing a unique and entertaining networking opportunity for the Southeastern Conference Alumni in conjunction with other alumni associations in the area.

The opening rounds will tentatively be played at the Sports Center at Chelsea Piers and the semi-final and the final rounds will be played on the Garden floor at the “World’s Most Famous Arena”, Madison Square Garden. The tournament will be a sixteen (16) team event with each team consisting of 8-10 players that are graduates of the SEC. We will fill the team spots on a first come, first serve basis.
Following the opening rounds of the tournament there will be a networking event at a Manhattan restaurant for all participants and members of the participating alumni associations

Where: Chelsea Piers Recreation Center and Madison Square Garden.
Price: $100.00 per player (includes uniform and tickets to a 2010-2011 Knicks game).
