Olean Macker Deadline Loomsicking off its first year in Olean, New York and 35th across the United States, entries are now being accepted for the Gus Macker 3-on-3 basketball tournament, to be played August 16, 17 on Delaware Avenue in downtown Olean. The Olean City School District Foundation and the Olean Sports Booster Club are co-sponsoring the Gus Macker 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament to Olean. Together they have made a 3-year commitment to host the tournament in Olean. John Irving, Gus Macker Co-Chair stated, “We anticipate having over 300 teams and 10,000 spectators from a 100-mile radius to attend the 3-day event and see this as a great opportunity to showcase Olean.”

More than four thousand registrations forms have been mailed to team captains from tournaments held in Hornell, Jamestown, and Buffalo. Entry deadlines for teams interested in this year’s tournament are Friday, July 25 for applications that are submitted by mail, and Monday, July 28 for internet entries. The entry fee for four player teams is $116.

The tournament, based on basketball played in driveways throughout the U.S., will include players who have no experience to those who have played college and semi-professional basketball. Primarily based on their age and level of experience, players will be placed in divisions where they will be most evenly matched. Depending on the number of teams placed in a specific division, players and the teams they’re on will be playing for first- and second- and third trophies. Also teams that finish last in their divisions could receive “Toilet bowl” trophies.
