INFORMATION
The inaugural NIKE Tournament of Champions featuring Hoophall West will debut on January 2, 3, and 4 2025 in Sunny Phoenix, AZ.
The event is a collaboration between the Arizona Basketball Coaches Association, producers of Section 7; the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, producers of Hoophall West; and the producers of Nike’s flagship girls’ basketball event, also called the Tournament of Champions. That event – hailed by the media as “unparalleled” (ESPN) and “staggering” (USA Today) – has been held continuously since 1998 and in the Phoenix Metro area since 2000, and has produced the consensus National Champions 21 times in the last 25 years.
The event has sold out. To receive an invitation for 2026, please contact us.
