Bharti Public School is hosting the third edition of the Ballers Unite Championship from October 12 to 17 at their campus in Swasthya Vihar, Delhi. The tournament has brought together 20 teams for a six-day basketball tournament, which is organized in association with the Delhi Basketball Association (DBA).
The competition features 10 boys’ and girls’ teams each, with both categories following a pool-based format before progressing to the knockout stages.
Tournament Structure
The participating teams in both categories have been divided into Pool A and Pool B, with five teams in each pool.
The fixtures are determined on the opening day of the championship through a draw. The names of the teams in each pool are placed in a lot, with each team drawing its first opponent. The remaining pool fixtures will see every team face the other four sides in its group.
Each team will play four games in the pool stage, with the top two teams from each pool advancing to the semifinals. The winners will progress to the final, while the losing teams will compete in the third-place playoff to determine the championship standings.
