The Prize

Challenge Danilo Gallinari, Italian basketball player and star of the Los Angeles Clippers, to a free throws contest - just like an All Star Game! This experience will take place during the 'We Playground Together' event that will be held on Sunday September 9, 2018, at the Marinai d’Italia Park in Milan, Italy.

The auction prize includes two VIP tickets to enjoy the event from standard seats. Plus the chance to take on the Italian champion in your very own free throws game!

Danilo Gallinari, one of the most famous Italian basketball players in the world, and Roberta Guarino, Milan City Councillor for Sport,Turism and Quality of Life, have set up the “We Playground Together” initiative, a project that aims to make street basketball more widespread, fun and accessible to all. The mission is to redevelop local basketball courts, some of which are no longer in use, in order to create sites that can welcome thousands of fans and that everyone can enjoy.

The project will provide new score tables and baskets, courts will be newly equipped, and the benches and surrounding stands will be rennovated. 'We Playground Together' will start with the court in the Marinai d’Italia park in Milan. The work is expected to be completed by September 2018.

The auction winner will also take home a D1 Milano Gift Pack, exclusive Italian watch brand that has rapidly grown in popularity and is today distributed across Europe, South America and the Middle East.

Since 2005, Laureus Italia has been developing and supporting numerous projects aimed at minors living in situations of severe socio-economic deprivation, helping them to feel part of a community. The Foundation collaborates with more than 70 territorial realities and involves over 30 Ambassadors, sports champions and more. In addition to supporting minors in difficulty, the Laureus Italia Foundation also caters to coaches, educators and teachers through training courses.

The Laureus Foundation, in fact, uses sport as a tool for the inclusion and contrast of educational poverty to accompany minors in their growth path. The activities take place in the outskirts of Italian cities including Milan, Rome, Genoa, Naples, Catania, Palermo and Turin and involve and support over 3000 children in the practice of 20 different sports activities, including football, basketball, surfing, judo and many others.
