The Experience
Bring your ‘A’ game to the TD Garden parquet. Get your colleagues together to play hoops for charity in ABCD‘s iconic annual tournament. Your team will play for a chance to compete in the finals and claim the title of ABCD Hoop Dreams Champions.
And after you’ve given it your all, your team will relax with a light dinner and an exclusive Q&A with Boston Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens and award-winning journalist Bob Ryan.
And remember, your special night on the court will inspire Boston’s underserved youth to dream big.

Volunteer at TD Garden
How would you like an inside look at historic TD Garden while helping the iconic ABCD Hoop Dreams charity event run like clockwork?
We are seeking volunteers to join us on Wednesday, September 21st at TD Garden. Your efforts will help us continue to deliver resources and opportunities to disadvantaged teens and young adults in communities across Greater Boston.
The History
A spin-off of ABCD Field of Dreams, played at Fenway Park, Hoop Dreams is a fundraising event co-founded by the great Boston sports columnist and author Bob Ryan and NBA Championship-winning Coach Doc Rivers, just a few years after Rivers led the Boston Celtics to the 2008 NBA Championship. Doc enlisted his successor, Brad Stevens, to co-host Hoop Dreams, and the evening shifts into “overtime” with a private Q&A in the Legends Club.
