It’s time again for one of our favorite times of the year, as we reflect upon and celebrate the life of our founder, Rob Yanders.

A bittersweet but favorite tradition at The Basketball Movement is our annual Rob Yanders Memorial Basketball Game. Rob was taken from us too soon, and we still feel the sting and the void of his powerful and inspiring presence. One of the times we feel closest to filling that void is during this game.

Well, we should say “these games.” We anticipate a nice turnout of current and former Yanders Law players, We Are United grads, The Basketball Movement trainees, and other friends of the program. There will be plenty of basketball to go around.

The event will be held at The Basketball Movement on Saturday, August 8th, from 3:00 to 5:00pm.

Non-players are, of course, welcome as well! We would love to have anyone looking to remember our guy. Plus, there will be some damn good basketball to watch. Seating will be first-come, first-served.

Doors will be open most of the afternoon for friends and participants who would like to join earlier. We would love to get a group photo around the middle of the event to capture as many of your faces as possible!

We are hoping to see many friendly faces and hoopers eager to play the way Rob liked to see the game played. See you this Saturday!
