2025 Dads From Downtown recap 🏀
A HUGE Success—Thanks to You!
On March 8, 2025, 42 dads and their child rebounders took to the court for the 2nd Annual Dads From Downtown 3-Point Contest, hosted by Noble and Greenough! This year’s event was bigger, louder, and even more competitive, with families bringing energy and enthusiasm to every shot.
Together, we raised $5,275 to support Shooting Touch’s mission—using basketball to advance health, equity, and opportunity in Boston and Rwanda.
A huge congratulations to our 2025 champion, Brian Scalabrine!
This event was more than just a competition—it was a celebration of family, community, and the love of basketball. Thank you to all the participants, supporters, and sponsors who made this day so special.
Already looking forward to next year—see you on the court!
