- Basketball in the church? Nike says yes!
In 1855 built Chicago church used until 2011. - then, due to its low attendance, it was closed and the building was abandoned until 2018. Nike decided to use it for a noble purpose - transforming the church into a modern basketball court. ALso there is a dressing rooms and a gym.
The church, transformed into a basketball center, will be used by the teams of local high schools, and at the weekends it will be accessible to all residents of the city.
The Nike Just Do It HQ camp is being held here all August, where professional trainers work with young people. Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen visited the center this week and worked with young basketball players here and told about the importance of discipline and dreams for a career.
