Team Amsterdam (M) debuts with a win and Team Katwijk (V) dominates at the 3X3 PRO League Utrecht!
This weekend the 3X3 PRO League in Utrecht was on the program. In combination with the 3X3NL Tour, this event is organized annually at the Jaarbeursplein. Unfortunately, the weather gods threw a spanner in the works this weekend. Fortunately, Younity, the indoor urban sports and cultural facility in Utrecht, offered a nice alternative. Two days of top 3X3 Basketball, with the men's tournament on Saturday and the women's tournament on Sunday.
It was the last stop of the 3X3 PRO League before the finals that will be held on Saturday, July 13 during the Vunzige Deuntjes Festival. All teams that still wanted to claim a spot at the finals were eager to make that happen in Utrecht.
Among the men, team Amsterdam made its debut in the 3X3 PRO League. After a false start of the tournament they managed to recover strongly and after a great final against U23 NL they took the win and the ticket to the finals.
The ladies tournament was won by team Katwijk. The strong playing team that reached the finals at the previous stop in Hilversum but was unable to compete with the strong playing Amsterdam because of the rain, got that chance in Utrecht. This opportunity was taken with two hands and Katwijk took the win.
Residents, family and friends of the participants ensured a pleasant atmosphere for two days in Younity, the location where the 3X3 community of Utrecht can go every day, with good but also with bad weather.
Next stop, Vunzige Deuntjes Finals on Saturday, July 13.
