3 V 3 YOUTH LEAGUE 

Our 3 V 3 league for kids is fun and a creative way for players to adopt team building. These games are a wonderful teaching tool for fundamental movements and skill improvement in areas such as ball handling, competition and communication. 

Each team will have  a maximum of 4 players: 3 players on the court and 1 substitute on the bench. 3 V 3 games are constant, upbeat, and fast-paced. In our Jr league, each team will have 1 timeout per quarter and there is a 20 second shot clock per possession. Any basket scored inside of the 3-point are is worth 2 and any basket scored behind the 3-point line is worth 3 points. Fewer fouls and violations will be called in this division, as this will make way for teaching points. The first team with the most points at the end of the second quarter wins the game. If the points are tied after the 20 minutes, a coin toss will take place and first team to score, wins.

All players must register individually (1 registration per player). Teams will be organized by Capital City Hoops management and coaches based on player's skill level and experience.

  • Individual registration is $60 per player

SOME BENEFITS OF PLAYING 3V3

 

 

When it comes down to it, the most important reason to play 3v3 ball with young athletes is that it is fun. When kids are able to spend more time actively participating and learning, they are bound to have more fun playing ball. Having fun really is the most important part of any sport or extra curricular activity.
