The Slamfest is a two-day super hoops event that offers
coaches and players a unique opportunity to play 6 regulation games
against teams from all parts of Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Iowa, Kansas, Colorado and Wyoming.
TWO SESSIONS FOR BIG &
SMALL SCHOOLS...two different sessions in
late May and early June provide separate divisions for big &
small schools (see dates & divisions below).
ALL TEAMS PLAY 6
GAMES...each team will play 3 pool play games on the first day
and 3 tournament games on the second day.
REAL GAME SITUATIONS...games
consist of two-16 minute halves, with the clock stopping on all whistles.
Teams receive three time-outs per game and can play man or zone defense.
No gimmick camp rules or running clocks!
EXPERIENCED OFFICIALS...we
hire certified officials to work all games!
OUTSTANDING FACILITIES...we
use several nice facilities at the UNK Health &
Sports Center, Kearney High, Kearney Catholic, Sunrise Middle School and
Horizon Middle School.
NEW COMPETITION...with
teams from across the state & neighboring states, it's a great opportunity to play teams that
are not on your regular season schedule!

SMALL SCHOOL DIVISIONS...ensure you play competitive games
throughout! We also have separate divisions for junior varsity teams.
Entry fee is $48 per player, with a
minimum of 8 players strongly recommended.

I take great pride in the fact that a
very high percentage of teams return from year-to-year for this event, and
recommend it to their coaching friends. I have no doubt that if you
enter the Slamfest for the first time, you will be back many times.

team, please click
