New competition

People can register for a three-onthree basketball competition in Horsham next month.

Horsham council has engaged Champions League Basketball to bring its outdoor 3x3 set-up to the courts in Park Drive across the weekend starting Friday, February 17.

The competition, with support from Horsham Hornets, will feature preregistered games, three-point shoot outs, slam-dunk contests and comeand-try sessions.

Wimmera players can register to compete for prizes in junior and open divisions via www.clb3x3.com

Three-on-three basketball appeared as an Olympic discipline at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

“3x3 is simple and flexible enough to be played anywhere and by anyone,” Champions League Basketball’s Matt Hollard said.
