🏀 WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT & FUNDRAISER! 🏀

History is being made on June 25th, and we need your support!

5 brave members of the Raiders Basketball Club - Chuck Pietrowski, Chris Plowright, Enrique Piedrafita, Ross Etherington, and Ben Dainty - are teaming up to break a New World Record for the most blindfolded free throws made by a team!

Each player gets a 2-minute window to sink as many baskets as possible... completely blindfolded. 🕶️🗑️

🤝 The Cause
This epic challenge is all to raise money for In2Out, an incredible charity working hard to support young offenders both inside the prison system and as they transition back into their communities.
