Fan-Raising – Win an Audi A3!
Want the opportunity to win a 2019 Audi A3? Thanks to our friends at the Dilawri Group (Canada’s largest dealer network), the top five (5) fan-raisers will have this opportunity. Fan-raising is easy – we have set up a fan-raising page for each team. You can invite your friends, family and colleagues to make a donation. All donations will help support children and youth in the GTA gain access to sport through our beneficiaries.
3-Point Shoot-Out
Saturday, March 30 | 1:30 p.m. | Sports Gym 1
Each team will select a player to participate in the 3-point shoot-out competition. That player will then have 30 seconds to sink as many 3-pointers as possible. The winning male and female players will each receive a prize. The sign-up form will be located in the player’s lounge on the Thursday and Friday night of the tournament.
Kids’ Clinic
Saturday, March 30 | 1:30 p.m. | Upper Gym
This fun one-hour clinic with basketball drills is led by the experienced team at Basketball World Toronto with coaching assistance from the Drive for Dreams Foundation. Q-Mack will also entertain the kids with his fun basketball tricks. This is a great clinic for players to bring their smallest fans out to be part of the tournament. We recommend this for kids ages 6-12. Please email Susana at baystreethoops@gmail.com if you have kids interested in participating.
