A pair of Red Bull USA Basketball 3X Regionals are set to tip off this weekend, beginning with the West Regional on Sept. 24 on the campus of UCLA in Los Angeles. The East Regional will take place at Maspeth High School in Queens, New York, from Oct. 8-9.
Each tournament will consist of pool play followed by bracket play. The top four teams from the men’s (L.A. and New York) and women’s (New York) bracket will receive a bid to the 2023 USA Basketball 3X Nationals next spring.
Attending teams secured births by finishing in the top four at one of several Red Bull 3X Qualifiers throughout the summer, while accumulating enough points to qualify for Red Bull USA Basketball 3X Regionals.
Red Bull 3X is an event series in partnership with USA Basketball focused on building an elite pathway for men’s and women’s players who have a goal of competing at the highest levels of 3x3 basketball. In addition to advancing teams to 3X Nationals, regionals also help USA Basketball identify the next generation of 3x3 talent while providing players an opportunity to qualify for FIBA 3x3 World Tour and FIBA 3x3 Women’s Series events.
Nearly 800 total athletes have competed at Red Bull USA Basketball 3x3 events throughout the summer.
