“I spent countless hours training on this court to develop the skills that I now share with athletes and fans,” Brickley says. “My hope is that this space can now become a home to others determined to reach their goals both on and off the court.”
Located at Wolfe Park Harvell Road, Manchester, NH, the new courts were unveiled on July 15, which is also now proclaimed as Chris Brickley Day by the city’s mayor, Joyce Craig. It features a two-court setup with the words “Brickley Believes the World is Yours” on each of the two courts and “Chris Brickley Court” at the center circle.
In addition to the proclamation of Chris Brickley Day, the event also featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony and a basketball clinic for attendees.

With a court named after him, Brickley is empowering the next generation of future hoopers, trainers and entrepreneurs, all while setting the example that they, too, can ascend to the same heights he’s reached and beyond.
