Hoopsfix All-Star Classic makes it 12 in a row
The 12th edition of the Hoopsfix All-Star Classic will take place on Sunday 24 May 2026 in London.
Held at the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre, rosters have now been confirmed for both the Men's and Women's games.
A star-studded line-up is expected for both contests, with a host of Academy standouts and established GB juniors involved, and a much-anticipated Coaching Conference is also scheduled as part of the weekend.
"We’re looking forward to being back at Crystal Palace," said Sam Neter, founder of Hoopsfix.
"We want to showcase young British talent while raising money for the Hoopsfix Foundation to reinvest back into the game."
The format for the event remains the same as previous year with an Under-19 Women’s game and Under-19 Men’s game being played alongside a Three-Point Shootout and Dunk Contest, as doors open at 12:30pm.
The full schedule for the day is as follows:
- 12:30pm - Doors open
- 1pm - Three-Point Shootout
- 1:30pm - Under-19 Women’s game
- 3:30pm - Dunk Contest
- 4pm - Under-19 Men’s game
The event is organised by the Hoopsfix Foundation, the not-for-profit arm of Hoopsfix.com, with proceeds from the day being ploughed back into the growth and development of the British game.
Ticket sales from the Hoopsfix All-Star Classic over the years have been used to help fund numerous outdoor basketball renovations from Clapham Common to Brighton Beach and Turnpike Lane, which opened last year.
