Electric Atmosphere

When a game is packed with fans, there’s an energy that undeniably affects how the players play, especially when a close game gets down to the final minutes.  Indiana High School Athletic Association State Finals always provide this type of electric atmosphere.

Seeing small-town schools play is another great component to these championships because, in some cases, you have to assume the entire community is present.  Frequently these schools bring as many fans as the largest in the state.

Add to this an opportunity for kids to play in a first-rate NBA arena, thanks to sponsorship from the Indiana Pacers and Indiana Fever, and you’ve got something you know all the players, coaches and fans there will never forget. Stop and watch these athletes before and after the games as they take in the experience. It’s a cool moment to actually witness someone form a memory of a day they’ll certainly look back on as one of the best of their lives.
