Coaching Info for Cruzin Classic
Our most unique event, the Cruzin Classic, takes place just prior to the Christmas holiday each year and features several nights in beautiful Fort Lauderdale and an optional Carnival Cruise to the Bahamas!*
The Cruzin Classic was created in an attempt to offer an exotic trip, but yet remain affordable for college programs. This trip falls between a straight-trip to central Florida and a trip to Hawaii - both in exotic appeal and cost.
The Cruzin Classic is open to NCAA Division II & III institutions, as well as NAIA programs. Like all of our basketball events, the Cruzin Classic is open to men's and women's teams.
All NCAA programs that are considering the Cruzin Classic should contact us immediately for an explanation regarding NCAA compliance issues related to the cruises.
