Adult basketball tournaments

Does anyone know of any big adult basketball tournaments out there? Something like Hoop it Up or Gus Macker. I have found a lot of tournaments for high school aged kids, but I am older then that and still want to participate in tournaments.

Well, I don't know where you're at geographically, but there's a pretty big tournament in Pittsburgh called the "Harmarville Hoops Classic" played in Station Square. I used to live in Pittsburgh for 15+ years, and this was some of the best "street" basketball I've ever seen. It has classes for all ages, including an 'open' class, in which anyone can enter--usually adults and kids who are too good to play at the varsity level. Usually this tournament runs near the middle of July, and you absolutely have to register early.

Now Vince, you shouldn't give up after 1 bad game.
Hang in there, you'll do better tonight.
