VIDEO: Three NCAA Live Periods in July 2021

The NCAA Live Period is back for grassroots basketball

After missing out on nearly 18 months of no in-person recruiting, Division I college basketball coaches will return back to the action as the NCAA Live Period returns in July 2021.

The HoopSeen stage will be in the South, the West and the Midwest. The goal is to connect players with college coaches to all levels and all parts of the country.

Our NCAA Live Period events are as follows:

- Best of the South - Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA - July 8-11
- The Valley Jam - various gyms to be announced in Phoenix, AZ - July 16-18
- Grassroots Showcase Live - Kentucky Expo Center in Louisville, KY - July 23-25

The Best of the South will return to downtown Atlanta at the spacious Georgia World Congress Center in the heart of one of the premier cities in the country. The GWCC is right across the street from the Mercedes Benz Stadium, State Farm Arena, the CNN Center, the College Football Hall of Fame and Centennial Olympic Park. We anticipate over 600 teams playing in this event this summer.

The Georgia World Congress Center is in the center of all three shoe company events that will be underway in the South. Every college coach will make their way through the city of Atlanta during this time.

The Valley Jam is a new offering for the HoopSeen platform. The West Coast-based stage will host the top programs in the West. Phoenix is quickly becoming one of the hottest stops on the recruiting and competition circuit. The city is designed for sports tourism and perfect for youth sports during the NCAA recruiting period.

The Grassroots Showcase Live will return to the spacious Kentucky Expo Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The event will replicate the incredibly successful and loaded Grassroots Showcase that we just experienced in April. With 53 courts all under one roof and games at the famed Freedom Hall, over 600 teams competed with us this past spring. We anticipate the same amount of attendance in July.

We anticipate nearly 1,500 teams competing with us across all three events in three different regions of the country. Teams can sign up today on HoopSeen.com/events.
