Hoops for the Ages 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament
Hoops for the Ages is part of the Aging Well Conference with three days of health and wellness events May 3rd, 5th and 6th .
Hoops for the Ages, a basketball tournament for men and women 40+, is taking place on day 3 of the conference, May 6, 9 am to 5 pm. Each 3-on-3 game is played with six players (3 per team) on the court in a half-court setup. Just as in traditional basketball, each basket is worth two or three points, with foul shots earning one point. A game consists of two 15-minute halves. Men’s teams will play at Robert Crown, and Women’s at the Levy Senior Center. Entry is free so come out and cheer the teams on.
