What they're saying: Ty Burnett, head coach at Aspire Basketball, said the club was founded on "the values of inclusivity, positivity and accessibility for all," adding: "Our Community Day echoes those sentiments.

"We want to bridge gaps between generations and create opportunities for local businesses and people to connect and grow and most importantly, have fun."
