First-Ever CLEAR Dream Match

 

The DREAM MATCH

It was in 2008 when Steve Nash initiated the Showdown in Chinatown set in Roosevelt Park on the Lowe East Side of New York. Nobody would have expected that in a nation where football is drowned by more popular sports such as American Football, Baseball, and Basketball, an 8-aside pick-up game for charity would garner the type of buzz that it did. So much in fact, that it has become an annual event.
