Events
Women in Sports Friendsgiving
This event is not just for women in sports - it's for anyone who loves women's sports! Join us for Women in Sports Friendsgiving, a night of laughter, connection, and empowerment. Bring your energy, your support, and your allies.
The event is brought to you by Hooper Mentality (founded by Patty Medina), HAYA, and the WBB Club DC.
Youth Sport Bra and Binder Donation Drive
There is a growing inequity between youth who can and cannot afford to play sports, and the cost of sporting goods contributes to this gap. That is why we have partnered with Leveling the Playing Field, an organization that provides free sports equipment to youth.
Many young athletes drop out of sports during puberty due to discomfort or self-consciousness. A well-fitting sports bra not only allows them to be comfortable and focus on their game, but also helps them feel secure and confident.
Similarly, a well-designed sport binder helps trans athletes feel more at home in their bodies. When youth feel affirmed in their identity, they’re more likely to participate, perform, and stay engaged in sports.
Items we’re accepting new or lightly used:
Sports Bras
Sport Binders
Basketballs
Basketball shoes
Mini basketballs
Youth Basketball Shorts
Not Collecting:
Other Types of Clothing
Used Shoes
*Lightly used means used only 3-5 times
You may drop off your items at any HAYA open gym or event.

Pre-Game Social Hour
To kick the Mystics game off, we’re hosting a pre-game social hour at Sycamore & Oak, located right next to the arena, starting at 5:30 PM. If you’d like to connect before the game, we’d love to see you there!
Pick up run
Our pickup games tend to be fast-paced, with several 7-10 minute games taking place over 1.5 hrs. We do not keep score, but we love to play music!
Please arrive on time or early to allow sufficient time for you to put on your shoes and gear and warm up.
We tend to cap the registration for open gyms to 20 people to minimize the amount of time people have to wait in between games.
