Press Release

 

Celina, OH — Get ready for an unforgettable night of trick shots, laughter, and hometown spirit! The world-famous Harlem Wizards will bring their dazzling basketball show to the Celina Fieldhouse on Tuesday, April 7th at 6:30pm. 

In this one-of-a-kind game, the Wizards will face off against the Celina Ball-Dogs— a team of local Celina teachers and community leaders. The night promises spectacular slam dunks, hilarious comedy, and crowd participation for all ages. All proceeds will benefit Celina High School Spirit Squad, with the goal of hosting events like this in the future and more community events locally. 

 


 

Expect an Electric Atmosphere

More than just a basketball game, a Harlem Wizards event is an interactive show packed with jaw-dropping dunks, crazy ball-handling, and side-splitting humor. Fans will cheer on their favorite teachers and community heroes as they take the court against the Wizards’ superstar showmen.

Kids who have a Wizards jersey can join the team for pre-game warm-ups, and the audience will get plenty of chances to participate in contests and fun stunts. The night ends with the Wizards’ famous on-court dance party — open to all students!
