For the second year in a row, Magellan and the Chicago Sky have named Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago as their Marquis Charity—a partnership that brings well-earned visibility and memorable experiences to this outstanding nonprofit. As part of the collaboration, the Sky hosted a high-energy basketball clinic on Friday, February 28, 2025, at BGCC’s James R. Jordan Club, where about 60 kids got the chance to train and connect with Sky guard Rachel Banham and assistant coach Awvee Storey.

Banham and Storey worked directly with the kids, guiding them through basketball drills, skill-building exercises, and team challenges. Banham, a standout guard with a rich history in women’s basketball, emphasized leadership, precision, and confidence on the court while helping the kids improve their shooting form and decision-making skills. Awvee Storey, the Sky’s assistant coach and former NBA player, brought his wealth of experience from both his playing days and coaching career. A ten-year veteran of the NBA and WNBA, Storey's hands-on coaching style and deep understanding of the game created an inspiring atmosphere where every player felt supported and motivated.

The BGCC has long been a beacon of support for youth in Chicago, offering safe spaces, strong mentors, and enriching programs to thousands of children and teens each year. Magellan’s partnership with the Sky ensures that the Club—and the young people it serves—stay at the center of experiences that uplift, inspire, and empower. Magellan is proud to stand alongside the Chicago Sky and BGCC in making moments like this happen.
