Are you ready for summer?  On Sunday June 6, 2010 Believe International is hosting a 3 on 3 charity basketball tournament.  We hope you will join us for the fun Sunday afternoon shooting hoops while raising money for a great cause.

Believe is a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to education and leadership opportunities for disadvantaged youth in the Philippines.  The organization is operated entirely by passionate volunteers, so over 95% of donations go towards our student scholars.  Today we have 252 students in 18 areas throughout the Philippines.

The basketball tournament will have two divisions (Men's and Coed ), so ladies please join in the festivities.  The registration fee is $100/team (up to 4 players/team).  Since this is a one day event, space is limited to 64 teams .  Register your team today before slots fill up at www.believeinternational.org .

All participants will receive an event T-shirt.  Food and drinks will be sold at the event.  Tournament prizes include:

  • Trophy for the winning team
  • $500 cash prize to each division champion
  • Free entry to next year's tournament

If you are still not convinced to play, but you would like to help.  Please assist us by:

Keep on practicing that jump shot and cross over of yours.  We look forward to seeing you at the championship!  Let's shoot some hoops for a great cause!
