Basketball Stars Napheesa Collier and Kate Martin Join Dedication Ceremony and Host Skills Clinic for Local Youth
Icy Hot®, an Opella brand and leader in pain relief, has joined forces with women’s basketball league Unrivaled to unveil two newly refurbished basketball courts at the Belafonte TACOLCY Center in Miami, Florida. This marks the eighth Comeback Court donation –another bold step in Icy Hot’s mission to enable underserved communities through the transformative power of sports and recovery.
“At Icy Hot, we believe recovery is the foundation for achieving greatness—both on the court and in life,” said Robert Carter, Head of Brand Innovation, Topical Pain. “We’re proud to partner with Unrivaled to bring these state-of-the-art courts to the Belafonte TACOLCY Center. Together, we’re inspiring the next generation of athletes to chase their dreams while staying strong, resilient, and unstoppable.”
Napheesa Collier, a long-time Icy Hot ambassador and Unrivaled co-founder, and Kate Martin, a wing for Unrivaled’s Breeze BC, took center stage at the dedication ceremony alongside representatives from Icy Hot, Unrivaled, and the Belafonte TACOLCY Center. After the ceremony, Collier, Martin and Unrivaled representatives led an inspiring basketball skills clinic for local youth, giving young Miami athletes the opportunity to learn from some of the most influential names in the game.
“I’m incredibly honored to be part of this initiative that combines my passion for basketball with a commitment to giving back,” said Collier. “Miami has been a welcoming home for our league, so creating a space for the next generation of athletes to grow and thrive at a cornerstone of this community like the Belafonte TACOLCY Center is an honor.”
The new courts at the Belafonte TACOLCY Center have resurfaced flooring, custom color and graphics, state-of-the-art LED scoreboards, seating areas for guests to watch the action and shade structures to protect them from the sun.
