This two-day tournament is open to players of all ages and abilities for a weekend spent on the basketball court and at the beach.
In addition to tournament play, there will be a slam-dunk contest, a dream court for the mini-Mackers and more. Food sold by Lakeland’s Dining Services will be available onsite, featuring vendors such as Johnsonville brats.
Dozens of dedicated volunteers will run the tournament, which is organized by and supports Launch: Lakeland Student-Run Businesses.
The mission of Lakeland’s Launch venture is to transform Lakeland students into the next generation of innovative leaders by providing paid experiential and entrepreneurial learning opportunities that prepare students for diverse careers in a multi-faceted world.
