Startup Ball 4v4 Tournament 2026 - Friday, May 1

The third annual tournament mixes founders, investors, and operators on balanced teams by skill and height, so you're playing alongside people you'd actually want to know rather than getting stuck with randos. You'll get at least three games across the morning at Hoops Capital East, with top teams advancing through single elimination on centre court. After that, the whole group heads to Entertainment Quarter for the NBA Finals and lunch, where the actual networking happens over food and drinks that sponsors are covering. Everyone gets a reversible jersey you keep, and the organisers deliberately share team rosters and LinkedIn profiles beforehand so you can make strategic connections before you even step on court. This is genuinely competitive but built around meeting people, not just playing ball.
