Opening the Court to Everybody

Gordon Hayward went through a drill with a participant of the Her Time to Play Jr. Celtics initiative, hosted at the Auerbach Center on October 11, 2018. Created by the WNBA and NBA, the program aimed to inspire girls with on-court basketball training and teach teamwork, leadership and self confidence. “I think that’s very positive and very healthy for girls to play sports because there’s a lot of life lessons they can learn through that,” Hayward said. The Celtics forward, a father to three daughters, also served as an ambassador for Her Time to Play.
