Foot locker – jimmy Rogers tribute

 

The design of this installation is a celebration of Jimmy Rogers, founder of the Brixton Topcats basketball club. It was launched in the Brixton shop in London and spread across Europe. Jimmy Rogers is a leading figure in Brixton, basketball and the wider community. He passed away in 2018. The club’s mission is to provide high-quality opportunities for young people in South London, both on the court and in their lives in general. The goal was to mark the significant difference that Jimmy Rogers made to the community. The project was backed by Footlocker, a proud partner of this fantastic club, to support the local game further and help foster the basketball community in Brixton. Club members were invited to the store to pay tribute to Jimmy and write personalized messages in memory of the local hero. “The Timeline” is a display unit that takes you on a journey through his life, his meeting with Michael Jordan, the debut of Luol Deng at Chicago Bulls and lists all Topcat Alumni. Topcats merchandise was available to purchase in-store..
