Wilson has sponsored open runs in both Atlanta and New Orleans for our Run It Back community. During our open run in Atlanta, participants had a chance to be a part of Wilson’s #BondedByBall campaign highlighting how the game of basketball brings all walks of life together. For being a part of this campaign, they were also gifted with pieces of Wilson’s newest lifestyle wear.
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month in 2021, EastBay sponsored a 4 state tour for Run It Back in part of their “We Are Hoops” campaign. Through this partnership, 80 community members received a signature sneaker from EastBay, and shared how their hispanic roots have made basketball the global game it is today.
