Hey,

No time for the small talk today!

This week's 3-pointer:

⚔️ Hoopsfix Pro-Am Semi-Finals set

Hoopspace will face Thames Valley Cavaliers and Ankd will take on Glacier Boys in the two men's semi-finals this Sunday at Brixton Rec after another big weekend of games last week which saw the debut of BBL pros Aaryn Rai, Jamell Anderson and Dirk Williams - this weekend we will see GB captain Carl Wheatle along with Justin Robinson suit up for the first time. In the women, it will of course be the four teams we have playing in the semi-finals, with this week seeing debuts from GB's Georgia Gayle and Gabby Nikitinaite, who will once again be joined by Ire Ozzy-Momodu. Join us on on Sunday by registering for your free tickets here.

🇺🇸 TCU to visit London, play BA & Surrey

It seems like the UK is becoming quite the destination for US college programmes, with Big 12 school TCU the latest programme to be making the trip to London, taking on BA and Surrey in August. Tickets are very, very reasonable, and it's a great opportunity to see college hoops in the UK!

That wraps up another drop, as always, hit reply with any thoughts, questions or anything else!

With gratitude.
