There's not a tougher, more addictive, competitive challenge out there. Once it's attempted, it stays in a competitors mind until it's conquered. For those skilled enough to complete it...it can always be done quicker / better / and cleaner than before.
14|27 is an individual based basketball challenge. It gives each competitor the opportunity to showcase their skills as their accuracy, composure, and overall basketball strength gets put to the ULTIMATE Test.
We take 14|27 anywhere we can. If there's a hoop...perfect. If not, we'll bring one. We've gone to schools, camps, community events, universities, tournaments, county fairs, halftime shows, cruise ships and more.
Due to the uniqueness of 14|27 we can make it work for any event, gathering, or competition. We've streamlined the challenge to make it adaptable and customizable to the needs of where we're at.
To encourage shooters to put as much “don’t give up attitude” into life as they do while on the basketball court.
To provide family friendly competition that challenges & inspires people through the game of basketball.
To see this basketball challenge continually taken on in every level of competition from children to the pros.
We're honored to have been able to partner together with some amazing companies. Each of them make it possible for us to bring our Basketball Challenge to shooters young and old.
We're always looking for more partnerships as we expand the reach of our challenge. If you'd like to get behind our effort of bringing an encouraging message about Life and Basketball we'd love to connect with you.
We're bringing 14|27 to a gathering at YFC of basketball players from all over Central MN.
These ball players know how to play and they love putting their skills up against anyone...we'll find out how they do against the 14|27. It's going to be an exciting time as we get to challenge and inspire these athletes. Game on!

We created an individual based basketball competition that we take to schools, camps, tournaments, halftime shows, music festivals, community events, malls, even a cruise ship. On top of all these events, we also do county fairs. In 2023, we had the honor of bringing our challenge to the Sherburne and Stearns County Fair.
At each fair we had tremendous success and we'd love the opportunity to come to your fair and keep the ball rolling...or shooting in this context.
This was our second event with DHOS in Minnetonka...and it was amazing!!! We ran the "14|27 mini" for four hours straight with zero breaks in the action. We had "Blue Chip" players compete all the way to grandparents. A few dads completed the challenge and several moms gave it a whirl. 14|27 is for the whole family.
A special thanks goes out to DHOS (Minnetonka) and we're looking forward to doing more events with them in the very near future.

This is was second time going to Sartell High School to run our basketball challenge during Halftime. We ran the 14|27 mini during the JV and Varsity Games.
One of the highlights for this event was that immediately after the JV Halftime we had a line of young people ready to sign-up for the Varsity Halftime. It was a great night of competition.
A special thanks goes out to Jordan Hansel (State Farm), Culver's in St. Cloud, and Dick's Sporting Goods for sponsoring this event.

We've done camps, universities and team practices. We've run game night competitions and community wide events and county fairs. Whether you're a coach, director, leader, etc. consider having 14|27 be a part of your event.
Depending on the overall time and hoops available 8 - 20 competitors can compete during a halftime competition. Most likely we'll use the "14|27 mini" for this competition. But we can certainly run the full 14|27 if that's requested.
20 - 40 total competitors can compete during the pre-game competition. The time allowed will determine whether we use the full challenge or the mini.
We partner with local gyms, athletic stores, leaders, and city officials to bring community wide events that basketball players can compete in.
Up to 50 total competitors can compete in 30minutes of time. Most basketball players have never run a basketball challenge like the 14|27...give them something new.
This challenge will clearly distinguish the truly great shooters from the rest. It'll also provide a chance for players coming off the bench to show what they're made of.
Tournaments crown the best team...but rarely do they figure out who's the best shooter. Inviting us in to run a family friendly and very engaging competition could be what your tournament is missing.
We can run our challenge in various ways and at different times to accommodate the schedule.
When we're invited to camps...we don't take the time to teach players how to shoot (that's often times done by someone else). We're putting their shooting skills to the ultimate test.
How a player performs will open the door for them to receive more coaching and technical training so the next time they'll perform better.
Don't let $ stand in the way of contacting us about being at your event. We've worked with all kinds of teams, camps, stores, fairs, festivals, etc.
Most of our events cost between $500 - $750.
We encourage you to ALWAYS reach out...and we'll come up with a plan that works for everyone.

Though 14|27 started in the hearts of Tommy and Angela, it requires more than them to carry out the mission. Many events run multiple hours using several hoops with 100's of attempts.
With ever increasing opportunities to bring 14|27 to venues both large and small we are very careful to bring on only the best. Our Team works seamlessly with young athletes all the way to Senior Citizens.
We do our best to make sure every competitor knows exactly what they are supposed to do and are guided through the challenge from start to finish.
