All teams in the Rawle Toney 3×3 Classic Basketball tournament in February 2022 would be outfitted with branded uniforms, compliments of SQ, the official uniform supplier of the 16-team competition.

The simple unveiling was done on Wednesday morning at MVP Sports’ Giftland Mall location.

Coordinator Rawle Toney said the Classic has this year aligned itself with SQ, which is part-owned by overseas-based Guyanese, Colin Baker.

“He would have done a tremendous job in ensuring that every team is properly outfitted,” Toney said.

MVP Sports was also announced as a sponsor of the event, set for February 19-20, 2022.

At the official tournament launch on Friday at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, the company will host a three-point shootout with the winner receiving a Steph Curry sneakers.

Managing Director of MVP Sports, Ian Ramdeo, said: “It’s heartening for me personally to see our athletes get a chance to get back out after a very long time of little competition and little play time. So we’re very happy to be part of this tournament.”

The company has also committed a cash prize to the FIBA-endorsed tournament, which is making a return after a two-year hiatus.

For Guyana to boost its chances of contesting more FIBA 3×3 tournaments, and most importantly entering the main draw stage, there is a need for more FIBA-endorsed local 3×3 tournaments.

The upcoming Classic will aid Guyanese and Caribbean players to get much-needed rating points.

Exciting, urban, and innovative, 3×3 is inspired by several forms of ‘streetball’ played worldwide and is considered the world’s number one urban team sport.
