WHY 3-ON-3?

3 on 3 is one of the best developmental tools for young basketball players. Compared to 5 on 5 players get more reps with the ball, in actions and gain a better understanding for playing in the half court. It is also great for developing timing, using angles and developing basketball IQ.
