The Goodman League at Barry Farms for Nike World Basketball Festival

Barry Farms...  Have you ever heard of it?  I hadn't, but then again, I'm not a native of the DMV.  When my friend, Teri, mentioned the event, I wanted to check it out...  Those of you, that read this blog, know that I'm always up for anything sports-related, especially basketball.  With the Nike World Basketball Festival in town, I ventured over to the court to catch The Goodman League in action. 

My friends and I watched the Goodman League take on a team from New York.  If I remember correctly, they played two 20-min halves.  Unfortunately the DC team lost, but it was a fun time out and chance to see the newly, redone basketball court.

John Thompson Sr. was there at the beginning to take in the action.  Kevin Durant and James Harden showed up as well.

Now, I just need to check out the competition at Rucker Park and my summer basketball experiences will be close to complete!

For those of you that are curious, above is a panoramic picture of court.
