This summer, the Calgary Surge & The City of Calgary's Downtown Strategy team have partnered to bring back Surge City Hoops, and our FREE youth basketball clinics and a SURGE CITY 3-ON-3 TOURNAMENT to the heart of our city. Join us for free basketball clinics every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from June through September, hosted at the Century Gardens Basketball Courts (826 8 Avenue SW).
Hoop in the heart of the city
Open to youth ages 9 to 17, these clinics are all about building skills, boosting confidence, and having fun on the court—whether you're a beginner or looking to take your game to the next level. Surrounded by the downtown energy and led by experienced coaches, this is your chance to train, play, and grow in one of Calgary’s most iconic outdoor spaces.

The Calgary Surge, in partnership with the City of Calgary, is bringing the energy downtown with a full-day 3-on-3 basketball tournament on Saturday, September 12 and Sunday, September 13th.
Alongside the tournament, fans can enjoy a live DJ, food vendors, Surge merchandise, and exciting contests like the 3-point shootout, half-court shot challenge, and a custom Surge sneaker giveaway. It's a summer community celebration open to all, whether you're on the court or cheering from the sidelines
