'Project SWISH' (Summer Weekend Inner-city Supervised Hoops) will provide an opportunity for inner-city kids to play basketball under the supervision of paid staff and volunteers, including adult basketball players, coaches, and community members.
Children aged 12 to 18, and their families, residing in the inner city are welcome to participate. There's no cost and no pre-registration. Just bring a basketball and have some fun! Throughout the summer, different activities will take place at the site, including 3-on-3 games, free throw, dribbling, and other fun games with prizes! Best of all, it'll be a place for inner-city kids to drop in anytime with their basketballs and shoot some hoops!
WHEN: SWISH will run Saturdays from 11am to 5pm, from July 8 to August 19, 2023.
WHERE: On the large staff parking lot at the UM Bannatyne Campus, McDermot & Tecumseh. (map below)
Free transportation will be available, including free bus tickets for children who are accompanied by adults.
Project SWISH Partners: UM Faculties of Medicine, Kinesiology & Recreation Management, Dentistry, and Pharmacy, School of Medical Rehabilitation, Bison Basketball, Parking Services, and Physical Plant; Basketball Manitoba; Basketballs for Inner City Kids; and City of Winnipeg SPIN (Sport Programs in Inner City Neighbourhoods).
