MCR Pro-Am is returning for July 2026, an elite level event, open to pros (SLB/overseas), semi-pros (BCB), US-based college players, and top junior national team level players.
Last year Holly Bryan's Team Hollywood lifted the winning belt, this year sees Holly return alongside Jordan Whelan's Deansgate Warriors and Jordan Dawes' Clarity Crew. Women's team manager Nii Sam-Quartey will have his first GM role as Nii'd More Buckets enter the Pro-Am for the first time.
- Deansgate Warriors (GM: Jordan Whelan)
- Team Hollywood (GM: Holly Bryan)
- Nii’d More Buckets (GM: Nii Sam-Quartey)
- Clarity Crew (GM: Jordan Dawes)
Pro-Am's occur regularly in the major cities in the states with NBA stars playing alongside local league players most notably in the Drew League in LA, Pro City in New York and Miami Pro League.
With a focus on high-level competition, the competition gives a platform to some of the UK’s top players, many of whom are based overseas or rarely appear in organised domestic action. All games will take place at Manchester College, with the following schedule:
Group games
Fri 17th July - 3pm Deansgate Warriors v Clarity Crew | 4.15pm Hollywood vs Nii’d More Buckets
Mon 20th July - 3pm Deansgate Warriors v Hollywood | 4.15pm Clarity Crew vs Nii’d More Buckets

More information on limited ticketing will be released in the coming weeks.
Player portal
This is an elite level event, open to pros (SLB/overseas), semi-pros (NBL), US-based college players, and top junior national team level players. Every player wishing to play needs to fill in the player registration form - this can be for players already assigned to teams of free agents needing a team.
