Renowned as Central Jersey’s premier destination for sports, fun, and healthy competition, Iron Peak Sports & Events is the ideal partner for 360 Hoops to debut its revolutionary new game in the state. With perfectly aligned missions, Iron Peak is excited to introduce 360 Hoops to the New Jersey community in 2025.
Played on a circular court, 360 Hoops reimagines traditional basketball with a dynamic twist. At its core is the patented 360 Hoop, a three-in-one design that lets players score on any of three baskets. The innovative 3v3v3 format sparks teamwork, strategy, and nonstop excitement. With adjustable hoop heights, every player can experience the thrill of a slam dunk, making the game exciting, accessible, and unforgettable for all.
“Partnering with 360 Hoops allows us to introduce an entirely new and exciting experience to our community and athletes in New Jersey,” said Gregg Wilke, Owner of Iron Peak Sports & Events. “The game is designed to be fun for players of all ages, and we can’t wait to see how it brings out the kid in everyone.”
On February 21, Iron Peak Sports & Events will host a Ribbon Cutting Open Gym to celebrate its exciting new partnership with 360 Hoops, offering the community a chance to experience the groundbreaking game firsthand. This free event, running from 6 PM to 8 PM, invites local athletes ages 8 and up, parents, coaches, and teachers to join in the fun, play, and be part of an unforgettable experience.
Two 360 Hoops tournaments are already scheduled for 2025. These two-day events will take place on July 26-27 and August 23-24, with each player guaranteed eight games throughout the tournaments. Plans are also underway to launch a 360 Hoops League in the fall, further expanding opportunities for players to engage with the innovative sport.
“We’re thrilled to team up with Iron Peak Sports & Events to bring 360 Hoops to New Jersey,” said Anthony Gomez, Co-Founder of 360 Hoops. “This partnership is a natural fit, as we share a commitment to creating unique, engaging sports experiences that not only bring people into a first-class facility, but also connect with the local community. We can’t wait to see how 360 Hoops will bring energy, excitement, and a sense of unity to athletes and families across the state.”
The game-changer of 360 Hoops? It reimagines how space is used. One traditional basketball court can now host up to five 360 Hoops courts, allowing 60 players to compete in the same area that typically fits just 10. With its portable design and focus on inclusivity, 360 Hoops is revolutionizing how sports complexes and communities engage with young athletes.
But the impact doesn’t stop there. Iron Peak Sports & Events and 360 Hoops have a bold vision to bring the 360 Hoops Experience to every elementary and middle school in the area. Starting in the fall of 2025, schools will have the opportunity to integrate 360 Hoops into their physical education and afterschool programs in two-week rotations. Additionally, each school can host an all-day fundraiser, benefiting the school or a chosen charity.
With this groundbreaking partnership in place, 360 Hoops is poised to expand into new markets across the United States, bringing this innovative experience to players everywhere.
“We’re incredibly excited to bring 360 Hoops to New Jersey and offer a whole new level of fun and excitement for kids in the area,” said Coach Shane Brey, Co-Founder of 360 Hoops. “This partnership with Iron Peak Sports & Events marks the start of something special. We can’t wait to see how it brings kids together, sparks their competitive spirit, and creates unforgettable moments. The future of 360 Hoops is bright with Iron Peak.”
