Parents & Players have raved about the Hoops for Christ 3 on 3 youth basketball league! The main comments involved how much FUN it is to play & watch, also how much players improve & learn in these leagues. This league was created for all players to receive MORE TOUCHES, MORE DECISIONS, MORE GAME TIME, and MORE SHOTS. 3 on 3 basketball became an official Olympic sport in 2020, highlighting the growth and popularity of the sport. We believe the introduction of this new league will help be a catalyst for the future growth and development of youth basketball within our program and our local community.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
- More… More… More… on average research shows players will receive 40% more touches on the ball (i.e., shots, handling the ball, passes, rebounds, etc..) when compare to traditional 5 on 5 basketball.
- You CANNOT hide. 3 on 3 is far more difficult to defend than in a traditional 5 on 5 game and this will force players to naturally develop their instinctual individual & team defensive skills (i.e., help defense, and on ball defense).
- Offensive Movement. The basic principles of offense are amplified in a 3 on 3 game that are essential to being able to perform in a 5 on 5 game. For example, passing & cutting, screen away, curl cuts, straight line drives, and back door cutting.
- SPACE! The art of offense is keeping and creating space and for younger players this cannot be understated. Every great player needs effective space to operate and create plays for their teams. There is simply no better way to learn effective spacing when there are fewer players on the court and YOUR actions are more costly.
- Speed of Play. The speed and pace of play in a 3 on 3 game is so much faster than a traditional 5 on 5 game which provides more touches, more shots, more rebounds, and simply more game time to learn what works and what does not.
- And IT IS SO MUCH FUN!!!
Don't miss out on the fun, sign up today!!
