The contest saw finalists from eight different suburbs competing for the grand prize of $1000.
House of Hoopz is the latest streetball competition in Ōtautahi presented by Youth and Cultural Development (YCD), the Christchurch City Council and the Selwyn District Council over the past eight weeks.
The streetball league saw great talent across each competition, which began in Shirley before heading into Hoon Hay, Belfast, Linwood, Selwyn, Aranui, Hornby and Phillipstown. Winners from these suburban tournaments then made their way down to New Brighton's half court on Saturday to play off in the finals.
Alongside the 3x3 games, the event welcomed participants for a 'dunk' contest as well as a three-point contest. The winners of these contests won a variety of prizes including basketballs, socks, NBA sweatbands and basketball singlets.
As well as this, the Fresh Team from YCD hosted a free BBQ for players and spectators but the freebies didn’t stop there. Lulu from Lulu’s House of Braids was offering her services as well as the Barbarians who offered free fades for all young people.
