About BANKSHOT
BANKSHOT Basketball is a new sport of skill and challenge.
It's a pure-shooting, non-running, non-exclusionary sport that
is played in a course of 12 stations consisting of 17 fiberglass
sculptured backboards of unconventional configurations and multiplicity
of goals. All shots are bank. As a player moves along the course
from backboard to backoard, the game becomes increasingly more
difficult and requires increased concentration along with shooting
strategy.
BANKSHOT Basketball is a total-mix sport, meaning it's a sport
for all segments of the population, adults, children, the elderly,
and the wheelchair athlete.
