Eugene 3x3 plans to be the hub for FIBA 3x3 basketball in Lane County. Fill out our interest form to help us build a program that suits you.
3x3 is both a training format and one of the fastest-growing sports in the world.
3x3 has its own FIBA-run World Tour and World Cups, and has been part of the Olympic Games program since Tokyo 2020 — plus the Youth Olympics, European Games, and Commonwealth Games. It's one of the fastest-expanding formats in basketball internationally.
One basket, three players, and constant spacing decisions force faster reads on isolation, closeouts, screening, and shot selection — habits that carry directly back onto a full 5x5 court.
A 12-second shot clock and half-court pace mean more touches, more decisions, and more live reps per minute than a typical 5x5 practice — a compact, high-output complement to a regular training program.
The essentials — with links to official video breakdowns from FIBA and USA Basketball if you want the full detail.
3x3 is a half-court basketball format: one basket, one 12-second shot clock, teams of three (plus one substitute) instead of five. Games are typically played to 21 points or a 10-minute time limit, whichever comes first. Baskets inside the arc count for 1 point, shots from beyond the arc count for 2.
Beyond the smaller rosters and single hoop, 3x3 runs on a much shorter shot clock, uses a smaller playing surface, and at the grassroots level is often self-officiated. The result is a faster-paced, more physical, more possession-dense version of the sport.
Yes. 3x3 basketball made its Olympic debut at the Tokyo 2020 Games and has remained on the program since, alongside its long-running presence in the Youth Olympic Games, European Games, and Commonwealth Games.
USA Basketball is the national governing body and oversees U.S. national 3x3 teams and grassroots development, operating under FIBA's international rules and sanctioning.
FIBA publishes the complete, current rulebook on its official 3x3 site — everything from violations to uniform requirements.
Here's what we're aiming to offer as Eugene 3x3 gets off the ground — tell us on the interest list which ones matter most to you.
Organized team play for adults, run on official 3x3 half-court rules with regular season nights and standings.
A more relaxed, drop-in-friendly, "check up" 3x3 format for players who want classic 3 on 3 run.
Age-bracketed 3x3 league play for kids and teens, run on official half-court rules with a regular game schedule.
Standing club rosters that train and compete together over a season, for families looking for something more committed than drop-in leagues.
One-on-one and small-group sessions for younger players focused on ball handling, footwork, and half-court decision-making.
Individualized coaching for adult players looking to sharpen their game or train for 3x3 or 5's competition.
Regular tournament nights and bracket play at the facility — a low-barrier way to compete without traveling to a sanctioned event.
Seasonal clinics and skills camps are on the roadmap — let us know your interest below and we'll prioritize accordingly.
