The more Kamloops high school basketball changes, the more the Fulton Cup remains the same
KAMLOOPS — For the past 20 years, the Fulton and Company Cup has kicked off the High School Basketball season in Kamloops. The annual basketball tournament starts on Wednesday and while it takes place early in the season, it acts as an unofficial city championship giving the winners early season bragging rights.
“This is year 21,” Tournament Organizer Will Blair told CFJC Today at the press event last week. “It’s such a tradition now. every year, the last three days before the holidays, it’s Fulton and Company Cup time.”
While technology has changed the way these players interact with each other off the court throughout the year when the ball is tipped off those old rivalries still exist.
