After a four-year hiatus, the March Madness basketball and cheer tournament has finally made its triumphant comeback, igniting excitement and anticipation among students, coaches, staff, volunteers, families, and the entire community. This long-awaited return signifies more than just a sporting event; it’s a testament to the resilience, determination, and commitment of everyone involved. The tournament serves as a beacon of positivity and opportunity for students who have consistently demonstrated making the “Right Moves” in and out of the classroom.

As an incentive-based tournament, participation is not solely based on athletic prowess, but rather on academic achievement, positive behavior, and community engagement. Students who embody these values are rewarded with the chance to showcase their skills on the basketball court or the cheerleading mat, creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every participant is celebrated for their contributions.

RMFY students are the heart and soul of the tournament, embodying the spirit of resilience and determination as they strive to excel both academically and athletically. Their commitment to making the “Right Moves” serves as an inspiration to their peers and the entire community, demonstrating the power of perseverance and positive progress.

The coaches and staff of RMFY play a crucial role in guiding and mentoring our students, instilling valuable life skills and values that extend far beyond the confines of the tournament. Their dedication to the well-being and success of our students is truly commendable, and we are grateful for their tireless efforts.

Volunteers generously give their time and energy to ensure the smooth operation of the tournament, from organizing logistics to cheering on participants from the sidelines. Their selflessness and commitment to the community exemplify the spirit of giving back and making a difference in the lives of others.

The community at large deserves recognition for their continued support and investment in our students’ positive progress. Whether through donations, sponsorships, or simply showing up to cheer on the teams, the community’s involvement is instrumental in creating an atmosphere of inclusivity and support.

As we come together to celebrate the return of the March Madness basketball and cheer tournament, let us express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has played a part in making this comeback a reality. Together, we celebrate the resilience, determination, and achievements of our students, who continue to inspire us with their commitment to making the “Right Moves” and striving for excellence in all that they do.
