TOURNAMENT UPDATE: We have currently reached capacity for the 4th Annual DC Lady Lawyers Tournament on March 28th. Please e-mail dcladylawyers@gmail.com to be added to the wait list should more room become available.





All female law students, lawyers and friends are invited to play in the Get in the Game DC Lady Lawyers Basketball Tournament on Saturday, March 28th. Games will be played at Yates Field House on Georgetown University's main campus from 9:00am – 1:30pm.



Bring new friends!

Your tournament registration fee is FREE when you sign up three new friends!

The person who brings the most new friends will have their summer league registration fee waived!



ALL abilities are welcome -- the goal is to get us Lady Lawyers and friends out on the courts to have a good time. The cost is $17 for current law students and $27 for lawyers and friends. Make sure to register early as prices will increase by $10 the week of the tourney. Fees include refs, scorekeepers, gym space, commemorative t-shirt, a light breakfast, and a pizza party. Law firms and companies are also invited to sponsor teams.

Answers to a Few Frequently Asked Questions



What is this all about?

The first "Get in the Game" Lady Lawyers Basketball Tournament, held at Georgetown University in April 2006, was a remarkable success that soon spurred weekly "Lady Lawyers Leagues," open gyms and tournaments in Washington DC, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sacramento and New York. Building on the enthusiasm of the over 600 Lady Lawyers who have been involved in the first two-and-a-half years, Get in the Game is a volunteer-led, nonprofit organization with a focus on providing athletic, networking and mentoring activities for lady lawyers and law students throughout the country, with net proceeds going to support charitable organizations focused on assisting underserved girls and women.



I love this idea, but I can't play that Saturday. Can I still get involved?

Absolutely. Email dcladylawyers@gmail.com to be added to our mailing list.



What times will the games be?

Registration will begin at 8:15am with the first game tipping off at 9:00am. Games are tentatively scheduled to run until 1:00pm.

How much does it cost to participate?

The cost for the tournament is $17 for law students, $27 for lawyers and friends for "early bird" registration. Prices will increase by $10 the week of the tourney. Firms can also sponsor teams (email us for more info).



I haven't played in years / I haven't played ever. What will the level of competition be like? ALL levels of experience are welcome. We will work to create balanced teams, and there's no better way to learn than to just get in the game!



We don't have enough players for a team from our law school or law firm.

No problem! We are going to team up interested individuals with students from their alma mater and other lady lawyers, so there is no need to have a pre-formed team.



We have an entire team of ladies just from our law school or law firm… can we play together? That's great that you have so much interest! We may have to add a few ladies to your team (or break you up a bit depending on how many gals you have) but we will do our best to accommodate your group. br>


We're really excited about this idea. Are you looking for law firms/organizations to sponsor the tournament? Definitely. Email dcladylawyers@gmail.com for more information.

Location: Yates Field House, Georgetown University (main campus)
