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.
This fall, we'll be traveling to Clear Lake, MN to be at Pearson Family Farms. We'll be there on October 19, from 11-3pm.
We'll be running the "14|27 mini." Everyone (regardless of age), will be able to compete for free and have the opportunity to win CASH!!!
An individual can only win once per day. A special thanks goes out to Thrivent for sponsoring this event.
Dick's Sporting Goods (at the local level) has been a long time partner of 14|27's and we're excited to offer some events with Dick's in 2024.
On a Saturday (coming soon), we'll be with DHOS in Minnetonka. Costumers will be able to compete and take on the "14|27" inside the store. It's going to be a great time. Competitors will be able to win various prizes and walk away with some free stuff.
See You Soon
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 2024, we had the honor of bringing our challenge to county fairs in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
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.
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.
Without Russ and Karlyn, the 14|27 Basketball Challenge wouldn't be where it is today. In its infancy, they brought their skills, passions, ideas, and heart to see it not only created but to thrive.
The early days were not easy and there were many times where we all wondered where this road would lead. Without the support of Russ and Karlyn, it would have been very tough for Tommy and Angela to continue to chase after this dream and see what God laid on their hearts come to fruition.
Thank You Russ and KP...
