RED Bull Half Court returns for another year, calling out to the best ballers for the ultimate 3-on-3 streetball showdown. This time the competition is set to be even more intense, as players from Luzon to Mindanao battle it out in the regional qualifiers in Manila, Cebu, and Davao to determine who will secure a spot in the world finals happening in one of basketball’s most celebrated spaces, and the mecca of streetball–New York City.
The games will be played under FIBA rules, with the first round in a pool play style and the following rounds in a knockout format.
Red Bull Half Court is all about getting buckets and playing high-octane offense with a unique Red Bull twist to the game: the Own the Court Score that is awarded to the team in each group that has scored the most points cumulatively across the games. The teams with the highest scores will advance for a chance for a spot in the National Finals.
“Basketball is an important part of the Filipino culture, and we believe that this tournament will provide a platform for young and aspiring ballers to showcase their skills and passion for the game, we are especially excited to continue expanding this year with our qualifiers in Davao,” said Eric Altamirano, Red Bull Half Court Tournament Commissioner.
The tournament is open to both men and women above the age of 18. All participating teams must have 4 players, with the 4th player as a reserve or backup.
