\u201cLife is Not a Spectator Sport\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0last month, a bold new global brand campaign designed to inspire people to pursue their passions, celebrate their individuality, and become active participants in the world around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe basketball court’s playing surface was repaired by Project Backboard and a custom butterfly mural featuring Reebok’s “Life is Not a Spectator Sport” mantra was also added to the renovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2019Life is Not a Spectator Sport\u2019 is an especially important message for kids,\u201d said Caroline Machen, Vice President, Global Brand Marketing at Reebok Design Group. \u201cEnhancing the game of basketball has always been a part of Reebok\u2019s DNA and we\u2019re excited to bring this message to their home court in a way that makes sense for them. Even if it\u2019s one Club or community at a time, if we continue to do the work, we can help build a more connected, active, and creative generation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reebok and the Club staff presented the renovated court to its members for the first time on March 22nd, with kids and staff receiving new pairs of Reeboks, enjoying a virtual discussion with Reebok leaders and remarks by local elected officials Jawane Hilton and Cedric L. Hicks Sr., followed by mini-games and activities on their new court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The ongoing pandemic has sidelined our kids for far too long,\u201d commented Boys & Girls Clubs of Carson CEO, Kim Richards. \u201cI can\u2019t think of a better way to get kids back in the game than having our clubhouse basketball court transformed thanks to the generosity of Reebok and Project Backboard. These renovations are a slam dunk toward our vision to provide equitable access to sports and fitness for kids in our under-resourced community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis sports court is special because it reminds Club youth that achieving their goals is truly possible by getting out of the stands and actively participating in life – both on the court and off,\u201d continued Richards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
