On the fifth day, players are split into 16 tiered 8-player teams, in which they train for a full day under international rules and learn opponent scouting. The final two days of the program feature an international-style tournament culminating in a tournament championship on the final day.
Troy will be a Junior and Spaar will be a freshman at Kamehameha-Hawaii in the fall.
