3X3

WHAT

In 2025, we celebrate the sixth edition of the 3x3 basketball tournament at Marisquiño.

On August 8, 9, and 10 at Samil Beach, the 3x3 Senior Women's Marisquiño and the Lite Quest 3x3 Marisquiño FIBA will take place, which will grant access to compete in the upcoming FIBA Challenger in Brasilia. In addition, as a great novelty, on Thursday, August 7, there will also be a Junior Tournament so that the little ones can be part of the event.

WHERE

Basket premieres a new location, Samil Beach, alongside its sister categories so that the public can fill the stands and the surrounding area of the court. The musical note will come from the resident DJ of the 3x3 category, DJ Jas, who will delight us with a variety of Hip Hop, Amapiano, Latin music, and the most select Funk at every moment.

HOW

FIBA official regulations. Simple and designed to make 3x3 a frantic, spectacular, and exciting game. Matches last 10 minutes. Each basket is worth 1 point inside the arc and 2 points from outside. The first team to reach 21 points wins. If the 10 minutes pass without reaching that mark, the team with the most points wins. In case of a tie, there is a one-minute break, and extra time is played until one team scores two points. 

In the men's category, 12 teams compete, and in the women's category, 8. In both cases, there is a preliminary group stage and a final knockout stage with single matches until only the tournament winner remains, who will receive prizes that are the same as in the last edition. 

Awards

When

It is expected that the matches of the group stage and the quarter-finals will take place between Friday and Saturday from 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM, approximately and practically continuously. On Sunday, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, it will be the turn for the semi-finals and the finals. 

The schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances.
