The 2023 spring grassroots calendar picks back up this weekend with a number of regional events, including one new showcase right in Philadelphia.

The Post & Pivot Spring Fling Invitational brings a strong group of local squads to the courts at Jefferson University on Friday night and all day Saturday, with 19 sets of action — featuring a mix of 15U, 16U and 17U games — all told between the two days. 

Included in the field are the area’s two Under Armour-sponsored programs, Philly Pride and WeR1, as well as some of the area’s Hoop Group Summer League squads: Brad Wanamaker Elite, PA Hoops Academy, Penn Warriors, Philly Revolution, Team Final Red and more.
