An exciting day of basketball competition is slated for Saturday, July 7 at the third annual Daniel Kingsbury Memorial 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament at Roberts Creek Community School. Twelve teams have signed up in three divisions – adults, youth boys, and for the first time, youth girls teams.
The tournament honours the legacy of Daniel Kingsbury by bringing people together to play a sport he loved, and by raising funds for The Jellyfish Project, an environmental initiative that he created in 2011. The Jellyfish Project has educated over 100,000 students across Canada about ocean health, climate change, and environmental stewardship.
Games begin at 10 a.m. and division finals will be in the afternoon. A shooting contest, open to anyone, will be held at 1 p.m. There will be music, a concession, and lots of friendly company so spectators are welcome to come out and join the fun.
