A Four on the Floor basketball tournament is a organized form of school yard "pick up" games.

It is played on a regulation court with two teams of four playing against each other. In regular basketball there are five players on a team.

There are age classifications for teams and winners play winners and losers play losers until overall classification champions emerge.

Some of the men's teams will play in other four on the floor tournaments around the area and state as well as informal leagues and games in Puget Sound.
