The "Make Your Point" campaign successfully highlighted the significance of providing resources and support to young athletes in underserved areas. By constructing basketball courts and fostering a sense of community, the initiative not only promoted physical activity but also conveyed a powerful message of inclusion and empowerment
“We can all be winners
if we have support.
Make your point.”
The most successful athletes are usually the most persistent teenagers. The perfectionists, those who don't understand how time passes on court, the ones who train even when there's no court in the neighborhood.
The crazy, the loud, the players.
