The Chicago Park District describes a Thanksgiving-season basketball showcase where teens demonstrate their ability to coaches from across Chicago. The event is listed at no fee at Loyola Park.

All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
The combine’s announced purpose is to put teen players’ basketball skills, athleticism and potential in front of coaches citywide. The Park District calls it a showcase, but does not describe a tryout or a formal evaluation process.
Loyola Park sits in East Rogers Park beside Lake Michigan. Its large fieldhouse has two gymnasiums, and the park also has an outdoor basketball court with two hoops. A path runs nearly two-thirds of a mile along the beach and lake.
Those are park-wide amenities, not a confirmed Hoops Fest setup. The event listing names Loyola Park but does not direct participants to a particular building or court, or say whether the combine will be indoors or outdoors.
