tournament season

The best options for any grade or middle school player!

Hooptown Championship Series

Hosted By: Spokane Hoopfest Association

HYL and Spokane AAU have updated to a longer tournament season. The goal is to expand local and affordable playing opportunities for any team (HYL, AAU, club, etc) to increase the number of total games played in a variety of formats. Establishing and growing a tournament season brings an immediate benefit to the competitive teams that historically played AAU and to the newly formed HYL teams.
