Great finds ray reading these articles kept me busy for a while. Do you have any news on the Elite1 Pro League started by wayne dawkins? Denham Brown was the mvp of the championship game and I was wondering if this league will continue to exist and prosper? I wish it was on tv and some games would come out west

Thanks. Any news on Canadian basketball is like trying to find your shadow in pitch black room sometimes.

The Elite 1 League was televised locally on a Rogers community station but I don’t recall seeing any games on despite them being advertised. I didn’t get to go any of the games unfortunately all summer which was a bummer.

From what I gather, this should be going on this coming summer as well. I’ll contact Wayne Dawkins as the summer rolls around and get a confirmation then.
