Friend and longtime Greenpointer Rick Atson has sent me information on a new basketball league for kids that he’s help put together. Rick has spent years supporting local youth sports and helping kids get scholarships to high schools that they might not have otherwise had the opportunity to attend.

Putting together 5 Boros Basketball will continue with this tradition and they are now looking for sponsors and teams. For just $250 your business can sponsor a team with your company’s name on their uniforms! The info for businesses is below and also check out their website to learn more about playing or sponsoring.


5 Boros Basketball is proud to announce their 1st annual basketball tournament starting July 2010 thru September 2010 playing out of Hoffman Park (directly across from Queens Center Mall). We would like to offer you this opportunity to advertise with us.

Our tournament consists of various teams of all ages throughout the 5 boros. Publicity is a key factor of a successful industry. At 5 Boros we are firm believers NYC youth deserve more opportunities to enjoy youth sports despite their financial situations. In order to cut costs we are reaching out to the community, to help sponsor our event. So our youth can have a memorable experience please consider to make a donation.


We are asking for a small donation of $50 in return your business name will be printed on a banner that will be hung in Hoffman Park all day and night during our tournament.

Our second option is a donation of $100 in return your business name will be printed on a banner that will be hung in Hoffman Park all day and night during our tournament as well as having your business name advertised on our website. A distribution of promotional bags will be given to all players as well.

Our best option is only $250 and that gives you all the above AND your business name printed on an entire teams shirts as their sponsor. What better way to get your name out there?

Please consider making a donation to our tournament. Keeps our kids off the streets, out of trouble at the same time doing something we all love – playing basketball. Come down and watch a few games every weekend in July and August championship games at Christ the King.
