How It Works

Participants will have a set amount of time to rack up as many points as possible from five shooting stations around the arc.

Time allotment: Each contestant will have 70 seconds to shoot all 25 basketballs.

Rebounding Time: Given the limited number of balls, after each station the clock will pause to allow staff to retrieve basketballs. The clock will restart once the balls are ready at the next station and the official gives the signal.

1st Round: Every participant will attempt to get the high score and the the top four players with the highest score will move onto round two.

2nd Round: The top four players will compete against each other to get the most points. The two with the most points will move onto the final round.

Final Round: Two players compete to get the top score. The player with the most points out of the two will be the winner of the tournament.

Attempts per station: Each contestant will have five attempts per station.

Standard Balls: The first four balls at each station are worth one point each.

Money Ball: The fifth and final ball at each station is the Money Ball and is worth three points.

Maximum score: The maximum achievable score in a round is 35 points.
