Younghusband says these events are important for the community as they showcase what the North has to offer and will offer many local athletes an opportunity to stay closer to home while attracting athletes from out of town with top level events.

“I think it’s just really important for us that when we started up this nonprofit organization, just being able to support other nonprofits in our community and really what made this organization sprout is just bringing recreation closer to the north as a lot of individuals from here travel to other communities to go compete. I think it’s important to keep that recreation within the adult population as well as children.” added Younghusband.

The inaugural Prince Hoops 3v3 Basketball Tournament takes place from 10 am to 3 pm Saturday and Sunday at the Connaught Youth Centre with proceeds going to local charities.
