3x3 means constant involvement and more reps — less standing around and more chances to grow.

Without constant sideline coaching, players learn to read the game, solve problems, and play with creativity.

What It Looks Like at 3on3 Live

Real kids. Real reps. A positive basketball environment.

3x3 basketball keeps kids constantly involved. With fewer players on the court and less sideline instruction during games, players get more touches, make more decisions, and learn through play — all in a supportive, encouraging environment.

This is where confidence grows naturally, friendships form, and kids are free to enjoy the game.

Why 3on3 Live Works for Middle School Players

Middle school is a pivotal stage for confidence, identity, and belonging. At 3on3 Live, everything is intentionally designed around how kids this age learn best — through play, freedom, and positive experiences that help them enjoy basketball instead of feeling pressured by it.

We use a 3x3-inspired format because it naturally creates more involvement, more decision-making, and more opportunities for growth — all within a supportive, encouraging environment.

​​

 More Involvement for Every Player 

With fewer players on the court, every child stays involved. Players touch the ball more, move more, and have more chances to contribute — not just the most confident or skilled kids. This leads to faster growth and greater confidence over time.

 Freedom to Learn Through Play 

 

At 3on3 Live, kids are encouraged to think for themselves during games. With less sideline instruction and no fear of being pulled out for mistakes, players learn to read the game, solve problems, and play creatively — skills that carry far beyond basketball.

 A Positive, Pressure-Free Environment 

 

Our focus isn’t winning at all costs — it’s helping kids build a healthy relationship with the game. Encouragement, effort, and growth are celebrated, creating an environment where kids feel safe trying, learning, and enjoying basketball at their own pace.

This is why 3on3 Live works — not because of strict rules or systems, but because the experience is built around helping kids grow in confidence, skill, and love for the game.​

Built With Intention...
Led With Heart

3on3 Live was created by Coach Kevin Roberts, a longtime youth basketball coach who believes kids develop best through play, freedom, and encouragement.

After years in traditional basketball environments, he saw too many kids lose confidence, sit on the bench, or feel pressure too early. 3on3 Live was built as a different kind of space — one where kids are involved, supported, and free to grow at their own pace.

The goal isn’t just better basketball. It’s helping kids feel confident, capable, and connected — on and off the court.
