New York City is the home of summer outdoor ball. There are several strong tournaments in New York – Gun Hill, Hoops in the Sun, Watson, Together We Chill, EBC, Kingdome, and others. Many long time tournament watchers would like to see all of them compete.
“Is this really the tournament of champions?” questioned NYC Pro/Am ref Eric Weaver. “This is only Nike sponsored tournaments. We’re missing EBC, Watson, there’s other major tournaments that have champions.” Read More »
Together We Chill 2009
Where can you see the likes of Kareem “’Reem wit it, Rock wit it” Reid, Antawn “Anti-Freeze” Dobie, Kenny “Serious Satellite” Satterfield, John “Franchise” Strickland, “The Cab Driver,” “Baby Shaq” and other big names in the summer in NYC? Well, actually, Dyckman, Kingdome, Tri-State, and EBC are some of the tournaments where you will find these guys gettin’ busy. But there’s another, less talked-about, tournament where one can find these elite ballers: Together We Chill. Located in the heart of El Barrio on 119th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenue, TWC might be one of the most slept-on tournaments in the city. Read More »

Together We Thrill from Asphalt Chronicles on Vimeo.
yesterday’s game was a night to remember at together we chill! major electricity among the crowd and players. thrills & chills in bunches. the first game of the semi-finals saw kareem reed’s & a-butta’s squad “piff unit” go up against the talented youngsters from “t.o.s.”. an incredible energy spread from the court, as each move by harlem’s own kareem “big game” reid and adrian “a-butta” walton was celebrated by the hyped crowd. piff unit lead by 10 til the end of the 4th quarter, but t.o.s. hustled back into the game with ferocious full court d – and came up with some valuable possessions. piff unit was still ahead by one point (78:79) with just 25.3 seconds left on the clock. kareem reid sliced thru the paint and finished with a beautiful teardrop, bucket! 78:81. then t.o.s. got fouled in traffic but only connected once from the charity stripe. but t.o.s. hustles up the rebound with just 5 seconds remaining. one pick for the point guard, get some space behind the three point line, throw a prayer, bottom of the net! it’s a wrap: 82-81 comeback victory for t.o.s.
next semi-finals tonight at 6pm: don’t miss it at together we chill (119th between 2nd and 3rd avenue).

Sign of Summer Ball gearing up in NYC
Last Sunday at Together We Chill Park in Spanish Harlem some old school heads got together and put pure hip-hop on display. It was good – saw AG, LoveBug Starski, b-boys, a graf artist and a hot show-car display. But as the “Mexican” instrumental was playing and top rocking b-boys were on the cardboard, my mind shifted to the hood tradition of watching a good game from a chain link fence… Read More »
