1X1 NEXT FIGHTS SEASON 5! Dutch master!
1x1 next fights
WHERE REAL BALLERS STAND UP!
1X1 NEXT FIGHTS is a concept inspired by the American game called FIGHTBALL. It is a physical game where most "fouls" are allowed. Unsportsman-like conduct is immediately whistled. It is a 1x1 full-court game where layups and midrange shots count for 1 point, shots beyond the midline for 2 points, and dunks for 3 points. The game allows no rest moments due to a 10-second shot clock starting once the ball is touched. It is a relatively new concept in the Netherlands. Players from 3x3 and 5x5 basketball are not used to this intensity and physical play!
There have been 4 seasons organized so far, with the latest edition in collaboration with Oqium called “Show me the money vol 2.”
Attendance at the finals is completely free. Season 5 finals will take place at the Transformatorhuis (Klönneplein 2, 1014 DD Amsterdam) on August 27 from 20:00 – 23:00.
