Community
RAISE THE GAME is our promise to bring better courts to the neighborhoods, to promote the local game, its style and its heroes. Alongside the NBA and local basketball networks throughout Europe, we are embarking on a journey to help the game and its culture on and off the court thrive. Supporting those individuals who have dedicated their lives to making their communities better, through the lens of basketball.
Each city has developed its own unique style of play on the court, just as it has its own style on the streets. Each neighborhood brings people together through a passion for the game that lives beyond the court. Each game played has the possibility to drive change and inclusion.
