Twenty six teams participated in tournaments, with 16 teams in one major USSSA Super Regional, six in Bob Gibbons, one in YBOA Super Regional in Alabama, two in the AAU Girls District/State championship and one in a local regional tournament. The teams earned 10 trophies, eight championships and two runner-up. This was the first time in Select Nation's History that 26 teams played during one weekend, a total of 10 trophies earned in one weekend and 16 teams playing in one major tournament. All we can say, :Just Go Select!!! Now let's review who and what made history.

This weekend the The Lady Select Black Future & Black Diamond  won the 3rd Grade
AAU STATE Division I & Division II . Earning two bids to AAU Nationals. 
The MVP, Camille Files, a 2nd grader who was just a baby when her big sister would go to
battle against the Mighty GA Pistols, but would come up short. 
We continue to finish 2nd. 
It has been 10 years that Coach Dove has been trying to beat this organization.
His babies, which consist of 4 1st graders, 5 2nd graders 7 3rd graders, got the
job done twice.
Congratulations to Head Coach Mandeldove, his CADRE and the Mighty ladies for making "History". Just Go Select!!!
