Hoops Shoot Journey

Meet Callie Stich

Our local finalist at the Elks 2023 Hoop Shoot National Finals will take place at Wintrust Arena, home of the WNBA’s Chicago Sky and DePaul’s Blue Demons., Chicago.

Congratulations to Callie!

The Elks sponsored Hoop Shoot is a 50-year-old free throw program for youth ages 8-13. This program is free to all participants and provides an opportunity to compete, connect and succeed through hard work and competition. Participants are divided by age and compete with their peers shooting basketball hoops. A wonderful program, shaping our youth today!  Win or lose, a great time had by all!

Winners move on from local competition at Pinecrest High School to Regional competition in Roxboro, NC, then to NC Finals in Greensboro, NC. From there they compete at the National regionals which were held in Charlottesville, VA. Those winners are moving on to the National Championship competition in   Chicago, Ill. Callie has competed successfully in each competition and is now on her way, representing Southern Pines Elks Lodge 1692!  Quite a journey for Callie who came through and delivered, now on her way to Chicago, IL!
