NYPD Community Affairs and the New York City Police Foundation help set up an epic playoff between the Harlem Giants and the New York Giants.
New York Giants players Daniel Jones, Julian Love, and Tae Crowder arrived at P.S 175 to the excited cheers of students who were overwhelmed to not only meet their sporting heroes, but to also play alongside them. The event saw the Giants running the children–known locally as the Harlem Giants–through a series of professional training exercises. From catching footballs hurled their way by Jones to attempting to avoid tackles by Love and Crowder.
“The main point we tried to do was trying to get the kids out for more fitness and let them know to stop staying home and playing video games,” Deputy Commissioner of Community Affairs Mark Stewart told amNewYork Metro. “Look at your smile. Look at my smile. Look at their smiles. Everybody’s happy. It’s a great day.”
“My favorite activity growing up was just playing outside. I grew up with three siblings, so we’re always outside doing something whether it was football, basketball, baseball, soccer, you name it, we did it,” Jones said.
