Come out to the Pleasant Ridge or Sayler Park Recreation Centers on Saturday, Dec. 29 for the first annual Cincinnati H-O-R-S-E Tournament, benefitting the Cincinnati Recreation Commission Foundation.
Horse is a basketball game in which a player makes a basket from a location, then other players must give a try from that same spot. When all people have tried, the next person in line chooses a spot and goes for a basket. Each person who misses is assigned a letter. They start with "H", then go to "O", "R", "S", and "E". A person who gathers all 5 letters is out of the game. The game keeps going until only one person is left or, in this tournament, time runs out.
In this less athletic version of basketball, the only skill required is shooting; no player is allowed to defend. This is a fun way to perk up that long Christmas break and help out a good cause at the same time.
Entry fee for the tournament is $20 per person (or $25 with a T-shirt) before Dec 19. After Dec 19, up until game day, the entry fee is $25 and does not include a shirt. The number of entries will be limited due to court and time restraints. Pre-register online or by mail.
VOLUNTEERS are also needed to help out at the event. All volunteers receive FREE T-shirts in exchange for working a three-hour shift. For more information, contact us or click HERE to sign up.
