FAN-RAISING CHALLENGE

The Challenge

This year, Bay Street Hoops is celebrating our 29^th anniversary. Since 1994, $2.7 million has been raised to help children and youth in Toronto and the GTA because of your support – thank you!

This year, the tournament will take place from June 8-10 at the University of Toronto.

Once you register, we are encouraging all players to fan-raise a minimum of $50 so that we can help even more children and youth through our beneficiaries, KidSport Ontario and the Drive for Dreams Foundation. Your fan-raising page will be created for you upon registration.

Since 2018, we have been able to raise an additional $30,000 through fan-raising. Our goal this year is to raise $50,000 through fan-raising.

The Prize

The top five (5) fan-raisers will have the opportunity to win a car during the lunchtime three-point shoot-out contest. You do not need to be registered to play in the 2023 Bay Street Hoops tournament to participate in the fan-raising challenge. The winner must participate themselves and the right to participate cannot be transferred.

The five (5) qualifying individuals will participate in a free throw contest to determine a winner.

The winner will be given one shot to sink a basket from half-court. If you make the basket, the car is yours to take home.

The cut-off to enter the challenge is Friday, June 9 at 6:00 p.m. EDT
