Triple Threat 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament This January In Flagstaff
Winter in Flagstaff is about more than snow and cold temperatures, it’s also basketball season. This January, Unlocked Potential proudly brings one of the most anticipated sporting events to spark off the year, The Triple Threat 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament. Taking place on January 10th and 11th, 2026, this high-energy, community driven tournament welcomes players of all ages and skill levels. This two day event is full of competition, development, and unforgettable experiences on the court.
With divisions including 11 and Under CoEd, 12 and Under CoEd, 12 and Under Girls, Adult Men, and Adult CoEd, the Triple Threat Tournament creates an environment where young athletes, families, and adult competitors can come together through their shared love of the game. From first-time competitors to experienced players, everyone will find a place in this exciting winter basketball event.
Unlocked Potential has long been committed to using sports as a vehicle for growth, confidence, and character. The Triple Threat 3-on-3 Tournament reflects that mission perfectly. While the competition is intense and the atmosphere electric, the foundation of the event remains rooted in positive coaching, sportsmanship, player development and a fun, family environment.
Here's What's Included in The Triple Threat 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament
The tournament provides a structured, yet exciting environment where athletes are encouraged to challenge themselves. Teams and athletes are pushed to work as a team, and push beyond their comfort zones. Whether a player is stepping onto the court for their first tournament or returning with years of experience, Triple Threat is designed to bring out the best in every participant.
The 3-on-3 format has rapidly grown in popularity around the world. That's for good reason. This style of basketball emphasizes speed, creativity, and skill in ways that traditional five-on-five games often cannot. With fewer players on the court, every athlete becomes more involved in the action. This results in more touches on the ball, more defensive responsibility, and more opportunities to make game changing decisions.
Players in the Triple Threat tournament experience non-stop engagement. There is no hiding on the court. No wasted possessions. Each pass, shot, cut, and defensive stop matters. This fast paced environment accelerates learning. It also builds basketball IQ, making 3-on-3 competition one of the most effective tools for player development.
Separate Divisions For Multiple Age Groups
The 12 and Under Girls division provides an empowering space for female athletes to grow in confidence, sharpen their skills, and develop leadership qualities through sport. This division is one of the highlights of the tournament. It showcases the strength, talent, and passion of young girls who are eager to compete and improve.
Throughout the weekend, young players gain invaluable experience. This experience and growth goes far beyond the scoreboard. They learn how to handle pressure, adapt to fast-moving games, and work together toward shared goals. These lessons stay with them long after the final buzzer sounds.
The Triple Threat Tournament isn’t just for kids.
The Adult Men and Adult CoEd divisions offer competitive basketball for grown athletes who still love the game and the challenge it brings. These divisions attract former high school and college players, recreational league competitors, and community teams who want to test their skills in a high-energy tournament environment.
The Adult Men division features intense matchups, physical play, and high-level execution. The Adult CoEd division offers a fun and inclusive competitive experience where teamwork and strategy take center stage. Both divisions contribute to the electric atmosphere of the tournament, creating thrilling moments for spectators and participants alike.
