The tournament will unfold on October 17 and 18 at the Academy location at 23155 Katy Freeway. Running from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, the event invites junior high and high school athletes to compete in boys’ and girls’ brackets. This initiative aims to blend competitive play with local engagement, drawing on the regional basketball heritage that Academy CEO Steve Lawrence described as a vital part of the city’s identity.
