If you haven't heard, Lake Shore Basketball is gearing up for our third annual "Triple Threat," which is a summer three-on-three basketball tournament held on the outdoor courts of the Big Vanilla Pasadena on Aug. 18.

The tournament offers girls and boys divisions for players 8 and under up to 18 and under. Players from each team will come from different areas of Anne Arundel County and beyond.

This is the third edition of our competitive and fun hoops day, and it is proving more popular than ever.

Last year's "Triple Threat" hosted a mix of intramural, county, AAU and high school level players—all able to converge through the dynamics of half-court three-on-three play.

The tournament features a two-game minimum and complementary use of Big Vanilla's pool for players and their guests. The Greene Turtle will also be courtside for drink and food purchases.

Registration is $60 per team and each player will receive a T-shirt and registration bag full of coupons and items from sponsoring businesses. 

Anyone interested in participating should see the attached PDF registration form and flier.
