Booking through The Event Supply Company
Add this to your line-up, or tell us about your event and we will recommend suitable options. We arrange the supply, check the paperwork against your dates and coordinate everything through one point of contact.
The basketball challenge is the fairground shooting game: players take a set number of shots at a hoop and try to score the result the stall asks for. Basketball shootout and basketball stall are the same attraction. It is a game that turns a group of friends into a competition.
How it plays
A go is a handful of balls at one or more hoops. What counts as a win, how many baskets are needed and whether the game is timed vary between stalls and are agreed with you, so we do not publish one fixed rule. Some setups suit head-to-head play, which works well at student and corporate events.
Planning your hire
The basketball challenge needs a level pitch with clear space in front of the hoops, and room for onlookers. Stall style, staffing and prize arrangements are confirmed as part of your proposal. It belongs with the darts stall and the cork shooting gallery in a row of skill games.
