Oregon National Guard Hoopla is the premier 3-on-3 street basketball event in Oregon, and it is believed to be the 2nd largest event of its kind in the United States. The 18th edition of ONG Hoopla will be held August 6th & 7th in 2016, and upwards of 1,000 teams, 4,000 participants, 900 volunteers and thousands of spectators are anticipated.

Participants young and old, male and female, and of all skill levels compete in the shadows of the Oregon State Capitol Building in Salem. Some play in one favorite division, others play on multiple teams in several divisions, enhancing their HATER (Hoopa All-Time Efficiency Rating).

Friends, family, fun, and ball. It’s all good. Most importantly, over the years ONG Hoopla has generated more than $450,000 for local youth-oriented activity groups and other charities.
