Brookhaven Youth Bureau to hold 3-on-3 basketball tourney

Brookhaven Town officials, led by Supervisor Dan Panico, will shoot some hoops against local teens at a 3-on-3 basketball tournament in Mastic.

The tournament, hosted by Brookhaven Youth Bureau’s Safe Summer Program, will tip off at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, July 29 at the Mastic Aquatic Center, located at 300 Mastic Beach Road in Mastic.

Players, who must be 13 to 18 years old to participate, will be randomly selected for teams the night of the event. Drinks and snacks will be provided and prizes will be awarded to the winning teams. All players will be entered into the raffle to win a free bike.

“I look forward to this event each year because it provides a fun night for youth in our community and gives them an opportunity to interact with their Town Supervisor and other government officials,” said Panico. “Registration is the day of the event, and I encourage our local youth to participate.”
