PLAY FOR FUN
At Mountain West 3 on 3, our goal is to get more kids playing basketball at a young age with their buddies in a fun environment. There is nothing like the pure joy & excitement of playing of basketball with friends in a FUN, energy infused environment!
Our team is based in the Boise, Idaho area where many of our events will be held. We’ll also partner with other basketball junkies throughout the Mountain West Region to bring #PlayHoops4Fun style 3 on 3 to their hometowns!
What is #PlayHoops4Fun 3 on 3? It’s fun, fast-paced basketball with your friends where you get to choose your own teams, get lots of playing time with no coaches yelling at you, playing with no pressure to win all the time, and having fun!
With only 3-6 players per team, each player will get several opportunities to pass, drive, shoot, rebound, screen, cut, defend and make a variety of basketball decisions!
Studies show that fun is a large motivator for kids to learn and stay involved in youth sports. Mountain West 3 on 3 gives the game back to the kids!

Our Team
Hello, we are the Wilson family! Basketball runs deep in our family. Kyle played college basketball at the College of Southern Idaho and College of Idaho and has coached from the youth club level all the way to the college level. He currently co-directs 3 boys & girls basketball clubs in the Boise Valley, and a basketball events company.
He has coached all 3 of his own kids, 2 of which are currently playing high school and club ball.
Angelina is a life-long educator and advocate for youth. She has been instrumental in helping organize and run camps, training sessions, fundraisers and tournaments.
Behind the scenes we are backed & supported by our “silent partners”, which includes a board of directors consisting of some of the most influential business owners, club directors, executives and basketball minds in the Boise Valley.
As a group we have noticed over the years that our market was lacking in a 3 on 3 league moption for kids. While we continue to be involved in providing various 5 on 5 opportunities for kids, we understand the advantages that 3 on 3 basketball provides as a supplement to 5 on 5, especially for younger age groups.
Join us in our journey to provide more #PlayHoops4Fun 3 on 3 leagues to the Boise market and throughout the Mountain West region. We are blessed to have the support and buy-in from great basketball facilities such as Treasure Valley Sports Center, Mettle Sports and the local school districts.
