Welcome to the Grand Rapids Gus Macker 2025!

Get ready to bring your A-game to one of the most epic 3-on-3 basketball tournaments around! The Grand Rapids Gus Macker is hitting the courts at Kenowa Hills High School, just 10 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and only 30 minutes from the stunning beaches of Lake Michigan. It's the perfect spot for some serious ballin', with all the action happening in one location and plenty of space for fans to chill under the trees or set up their tents. Proceeds from this tournament support Kenowa Hills Youth athletic programs, so your hustle on the court helps keep the game alive for players of all ages.

Don’t wait—get your squad together and register NOW!
The competition is fierce, so pick your team and get ready to ball out. Divisions are split by age, gender, and skill level, so there’s a spot for everyone. If you're 8 years old or younger, you'll be dunkin' on an 8-foot rim. (Pro tip: All players in this division must be 8 or younger!) Youth teams can also sign up to play on the Dreamcourt at the event.

Team Registration Fee: $172
Deadline for online registration is August 25th—don’t miss out!

Only the strongest will earn the glory! Trophies are awarded to the top 3 teams and the Toilet Bowl (yep, we’ve got a bracket for those who still bring it). Which trophy are you claiming this year?
