If you have children ages 6 through 13 as of this March 15, 2026, and if they enjoy basketball, then the following information is for you (and them!).

At 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 28, 2026 the Platteville Optimist Club will be hosting their annual Tri-Star Basketball Skills event at Platteville High School. Registration will take place from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

At this event, young basketball players compete with others in their division (same age and gender) as they earn scores for performing passing, dribbling and shooting drills. First place trophies will be awarded in each division, with first place winners being eligible for the Southwest Wisconsin Optimist District competition on Saturday, April 25th, 2026, at the Prairie View Middle School, Sun Prairie WI. If the first-place winner is unable to attend the district competition, the second-place winner is eligible to participate at the district competition. All participants will be awarded certificates of participation at the conclusion of the event.

If your kids would like to participate in this year’s Tri-Star Basketball Skills event, they need to show up on Saturday, March 28, 2026, with an application containing a parent/guardian signature. An application accompanies this letter, which can be completed and brought to the event, or parent/guardian can sign one of the applications available that day. Parents are welcome to watch the competition.
