Naismith 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament

     

Fun is what you should expect and that is what you will experience in this unique 3-ON-3 basketball festival. From 1992 to 2009 almost one hundred teams participated annually in twenty divisions on the streets of Almonte, making this the largest 3-ON-3 tournament in Eastern Ontario.

      On August 7th, 2010 elementary and high school teams and men's and ladies' teams with varying levels of experience, will enjoy the warm, welcoming ambiance of "The Friendly Town". Between games participants and spectators are encouraged to visit our parks and scenic areas, along with Almontes many original shops. Please visit www.mississippimills.ca or www.almonte.com for more information.

All teams play at least three games with five to seven required to win a division. Games are played "rain or shine".

In the event of severely inclement weather some games may be rescheduled indoors or played on Sunday.

The festival is organized by the Dr. James Naismith Foundation and is sanctioned by provincial and national basketball governing bodies. With the closing of streets, the Town of Mississippi Mills continues ongoing support for the event that the Foundation has enjoyed since its inception

Visit Almonte, walk the streets, enjoy a healthy family outing and of course, call again!
