For years, 3-on-3 basketball during Bay Days was one of those summer traditions people still talk about. Main Street packed with players, music echoing off the storefronts, kids dribbling between courts, and the whole town showing up to watch. This year, we’re bringing that energy back with The Northshore Classic 2026.

Whether you’re coming to compete, cheer from the sidelines, or just soak in a weekend of basketball on the shores of Lake Superior, this tournament is about more than the game. It’s about community, summer nostalgia, and creating a new generation of memories in downtown Ashland. Grab your team, lace up, and be part of the comeback.
