‘Chooks’ 3x3 lures 12 teams

MANILA, Philippines — Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas 3x3 will re-ignite the domestic 3x3 basketball scene with a one-day invitational tournament that will jumpstart its new season.

Twelve teams will compete in the 2021 Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas 3x3 Invitational powered by TM on Wednesday at the Laus Events Center in San Fernando, Pampanga.

For league owner Ronald Mascariñas, it’s been too long since the country had a 3x3 tournament with the last being the President’s Cup held in October 2020 at the Inspire Sports Academy in Calamba, Laguna.

“The pandemic has really affected our goal of garnering valuable FIBA 3x3 points for the country in our dream of qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics,” said Mascariñas. “For us to re-ignite the fire of our stakeholders and team owners, we organized this one-day tournament.”
