Maine’s longest-running continuous three-on-three benefit basketball tournament, the Dr. Noel Paradise Memorial Swish-Out Childhood Cancer Challenge, will be held Sunday, Feb. 13, at the University of Southern Maine in Gorham.
The main divisions of the co-ed, double-elimination tournament are open to adults 19 or older. The entry fee is $100 per team, and all proceeds go to the Maine Children’s Cancer Program. Teams are divided into two divisions – a 28-team “Just For Fun” division, and an Elite 8 Division that’s by invitation only after teams have registered.
