A MODERN CLASSIC.
SWOOPS™ is an asymmetric basketball court format that combines the best of basketball's eras, range vs contact, through a dramatic team side change every quarter. Where the modern game has narrowed into one dominant style, SWOOPS™ opens it back up.One basket keeps the three-point line, rewarding spacing, shooting, and pace. The other counts every shot as two, rewarding footwork, finishing, rebounding, and interior pressure.
Same fundamentals. New geometry.Design patent pending. Trademark filed.The format has never been played, and we're now seeking the right partner to produce the first-ever games on a real court.
It's Basketball Drama, It's SWOOPS.
The Court
THE COURT IS THE ENGINE.The SWOOPS court is split into two halves, each engineered to reward a different basketball advantage.On the perimeter side, three-point shots are available, opening the floor for range, spacing, pace, and outside creation. On the interior side, every basket counts as two, bringing the game into footwork, finishing, rebounding, mid-range touch, and physical defense.The court does not just mark where the game is played. It decides how the game is played. Every quarter carries its own pressure and math, and the best teams are the ones built to win on both sides.
It's Basketball Drama, It's SWOOPS.
The Game
EVERY QUARTER CHANGES THE DYNAMIC.Both teams get the same full-game opportunity. What changes is the timing. As teams switch sides each quarter, the shot profile, spacing, defensive responsibilities, and momentum shift with them. A lead is never just a lead, because the next quarter may reward a different style of play.And no SWOOPS game dies on the clock: the Q4 buzzer stops the clock, not the game. Play continues until a team makes the go-ahead basket, so every game ends on a made shot, and on a highlight. That is where SWOOPS creates its drama.NOTE: SWOOPS projections are modeled from format rules and professional basketball baselines. Final gameplay data will require on-court testing.
It's Basketball Drama, It's SWOOPS.
Why Now?
A NEW CHAPTER FOR THE SPORT.Basketball keeps evolving, and the current era has optimized into one dominant style, something fans, players, and the league itself feel. SWOOPS creates room for more styles to matter again, inside one game.Because the floor changes every quarter, shooters, slashers, bigs, defenders, rebounders, and playmakers all get real chances to shape the outcome, and coaches must win two games at once.That movement is the opportunity. Each quarter delivers its own highlight, its own storyline, and its own media moment, four times per game. Built for live arenas, broadcast, social viewing, multi-stream formats, and sponsorship, without losing what makes basketball, basketball.

LET’S BUILD THE FIRST TEST.SWOOPS was created by Eliezer Rosado through Pachi Entertainment, LLC as an original basketball court format built on a simple belief: changing the floor can change the game. It has never been played. The format is design patent pending and trademark filed, currently moving toward its next milestone: a serious filmed on-court test designed to evaluate gameplay, player response, audience reaction, production value, and commercial potential. There is only one first game, and whoever helps produce it is part of the origin of a new sport.We are opening conversations with people in basketball, production, sports media, live events, sponsorship, investment, and sports innovation.If you can help test, produce, fund, sponsor, advise, or open the right door, let's connect.U.S. Design Patent Application No. 30/056,714 (Pending)
