Marblehead Basketball to host 4th annual Tip-Off Nights

Friends of Marblehead Basketball is proud to announce the 4th annual Tip-Off Nights, taking place on Tuesday, Dec. 16 for the girls program and Thursday, Dec. 18 for the boys program. Both events begin at 7 p.m. in the Marblehead High School Field House and will mark the first home game of the season for each team.

The goal of Tip-Off Night is to bring the Marblehead basketball community together and officially kick off a new season. In keeping with tradition, the evening will feature special performances and community involvement, including the national anthem sung by Anya Kane, a 2025 MHS graduate and current American University student.

At halftime, Girls and Boys Youth Basketball players, as well as members of the Unified Basketball team, are invited to participate on the court — highlighting Marblehead’s commitment to inclusivity, youth development and community connection within the sport.

Fans can look forward to a lively atmosphere with concessions and shirt and spirit wear give-aways throughout the night. Families, alumni and basketball supporters across town are encouraged to come out and help launch what is anticipated to be an exciting and competitive season for both the girls and boys teams.
