Bulkey Richardson Partners with Hooplandia

Bulkley Richardson will sponsor Hooplandia, an epic three-day event where thousands of players will compete in 3v3 basketball games on more than 70 courts. Hooplandia is a family-friendly event celebrating the thrill of competition across a wide range of divisions, including youth, adults, wheelchair, Special Olympics and Wounded Warrior. The weekend-long event also includes slam dunk, three-point, free throw and dribble competitions.

Taking place at Eastern States Exposition, home of The Big E, with some featured games at Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Hooplandia runs June 23-25, 2023. Beyond the courts, Fan Zones will include interactive attractions, food, music, shops and more.

Officials estimate this event could mean a $4 million economic boost for the area in the event’s first year.

Hooplandia will shine a bright light on the Springfield area, the birthplace of basketball, honoring its legacy and impact on this global sport by drawing players and fans from throughout the Northeast and beyond.
