Major Players in Chicago Game of Life
We've got a top notch team for a top notch Community!
Darryl woods
Chicago Representative
Darryl is a Chicago bred Guard from the Westside. Not only was his life saved by hoop but his popularity in hoop also helped to save his brothers. "I believe this game has untapped potential, as many young men of color that love this game, we can use the game to give love back.
Darryls work in Sports, Social work, and his stint in professional basketball has made him a valuable asset and credible community resource.
Tylus Allen
Chicago Representative
Tylus hails from the Englewood area of Chicago but has a far reaching influence all over the world. " I have seen young men who had nothing to live for and nothing to care about be willing to die for basketball and some actually died for basketball. Name one other profession, game or sport that invokes that type of passion?
We plan to connect with that hooper that needs that extra push, that extra encouragement, and that extra resource that helps grow them and their family."
