• The South Dakota High School Activities Association is proposing having all of the state basketball tournaments in Sioux Falls. What do you think of that idea?

• Here are some of the thoughts we have received so far:
• The fact is most of the population in South Dakota is in the Eastern half of the state.  West River won't like it.  Extended contracts with hotels and facilities are much cheaper than contracts signed a year or two in advance, even if the hotels and facilities are "guaranteed." - Rob Moorlach
• I think the tournaments should be shared around various cities in South Dakota as they have been in the past. Even though it is the largest city in the State, Sioux Falls becomes very crowded and busy with just one event being held there at a time. I can't imagine how it would function with all three basketball tournaments held there at the same time! - Dorene Nelson
• The idea stinks.
• Not in favor of it. Economic impact on other towns who host tournaments
• I think it is a poor idea:  Everyone in the State helps pay for extra curricular activities through their taxes and the revenue derived through tournaments should be spread around too.
• I can understand why other larger towns would like to keep the tournament site alternating, it is a huge boost to their local economy.  On a personal level, due to our home town, Sioux Falls is easier to get to and so I would like that too.
• Not fair for other town who want to host it. Why should Sioux Falls get all the money.
