The ShoWare Shootout – one of South King County’s largest 3-on-3 outdoor basketball tournaments – returned last weekend, with 112 teams competing in 18 divisions.

Action began on Saturday, concluding with the finals on Sunday.

The sixth annual invitational attracted teams from Port Angeles to Olympia, vying for top honors on the sun-splashed halfcourts scattered along the ShoWare Center’s west parking lot.

The event, presented by Republic Services, featured age divisions for men, women, seniors, kids and wheelchair.

“There were a lot of AAU and club teams playing in Las Vegas and California this weekend, but we’re pleased with what we had here,” said Steve Turcotte, tournament director. “The tournament was a success.”
