Registration begins today for the 9th Annual Hoops in the Highlands Basketball Tournament to be held Saturday, March 24th. The popular 3-on-3 basketball tournament draws competitors in 1st thru 8th grades from schools all over the Metroplex and raises money for Lake Highlands Junior High and its feeder elementary schools: Lake Highlands, Northlake, Wallace and White Rock.

Besides the athletic competition, Hoops in the Highlands features a party atmosphere with live music, carnival-style food and a Fun Zone for younger kids. In previous years, performers from LHHS, including the Wildcat Wranglers, have entertained the crowds.
