March Mania was an undeniable success! The heart of our goal for the tournament was to craft a vibrant space where both the community and teams could shed the weight of their daily stresses, if only for a day. Through the joy of competition, the warmth of camaraderie, and the shared excitement of the games, we were able to transform this vision into a reality. It was a day not just about basketball, but about coming together to celebrate resilience, wellness, and the power of community support.
