There’s an exciting opportunity coming up for women who love basketball!
HRC’s annual 3 on 3 tournament is on Saturday, July 23rd in NE Portland’s Irving Park. Registration is open until 2pm on Thursday, July 21, and costs either $20 for an individual or $80 for a team.
The tournament is open to players of all skill levels, and there will be both a rec bracket and a competitive bracket. No need to worry if you haven’t laced up your sneaks in years — there’s bound to be a spot for you.
It’s no secret that HRC is not the ideal queer rights group, and that understandably may prevent some women from wanting to play. Still, it’s rare to find an explicitly gay-friendly/gay-supportive tournament like this. And besides, who doesn’t want to reenact the “Shopping, bitch!” scene from the L Word?
And DJs Mr. Charming (Gaycation, Blow Pony) and Roy-G-Biv (Bent, Blow Pony) will be playin’ the jams for all the lady jocks!
Where will we be able to access all of the pictures our lovely photographers took be?
qPDX didn’t have any official photographers but we would love to post any that anyone wants to contribute. Contact me at alley@qpdx.com
Haha good point Phil! Where are the pictures from the tournament? There were plenty of photographers…
