Philly Women's Summer Basketball League: The Schedule

By Mel Greenberg @womhoopsguru

OK, after giving you the rosters last week, the Guru has produced his version of the 12-team, 11-game schedule of the Philadelphia/Suburban Women's NCAA-Certified Summer Basketball League that begins play Thursday night, June 15, and continues every Tuesday and Thursday night with three doubleheaders per court, except for Tuesday, July 4, for the obvious reason.

The regular season concludes on Tuesday, July 25 followed by three nights of playoffs, the top eight qualify, with the quarterfinals on Thursday, July 27; the semifinals on Tuesday, Aug. 1, and then championship on Thursday, August 3.

Thne league has a site on facebook in addition to the Guru coverage.

Besides their afilliated color designate, nine of the teams have most of their Division II and Division III squads in tact and so in those cases your Guru has provided coded guides so you know who they are.

The NCAA allows Division II and III teams to do this but only two from a current Division I squad can play on the same summer team. But graduated players don't count against the restriction.

At the very bottom will be the ongoing seed tracker concocted by yours truly several years ago so you get a quick picture on the playoff hunt once a significant number of games have been played.

It also helps quickly break ties on the final night of  the regular season to determine the eight qualifying teams and seed position.

Besides the day-by-day schedule here, the Guru in an innovation also provides each team's schedule..

The games will continue to be played at the Kelly Bolish Gym,, home of the AAU Renegades in Hatboro at the end of Turnpike Drive in Willow Grove Business Park a few miles from the 611 exit. There is a snack bar with tassty and reasonable-priced items.

There will be nights the Guru will be out of pocket due to WNBA action but there will still be a report since longtime commissioner David Kessler always postgasme info.

That said, here's the list.
