SWAN Hill Basketball Association action returns next week, and not only for the domestic competition, with the exciting 3×3 format of the sport coming to town.
Fast-paced 3×3 basketball made its debut as an Olympic sport at Tokyo 2020.
A Senior/Open competition is to be played in Swan Hill on Tuesday nights and run over four weeks, starting next week.
Teams can be made up of three to five players, who need to be older than 14.
Made up of 12-minute halves, the games will take place on a half-court, where both teams score in the same basket.
What would usually be a three-pointer is now a two-pointer in this competition, while any shots made within the arc are worth just one point each.
People without a full team can get in contact with Swan Hill Basketball Association to see if it can help them link up with teammates.
Interest can be expressed by email to shba@bigpond.net.au.
