With the Harlem Globetrotters, Fitness is Fun!

At the center of a movement destined to take hold worldwide, the Harlem Globetrotters made history with the 2008 launch of a rewarding initiative called S.P.I.N.™ – Some Playtime Is Necessary – a program designed to make fitness fun for kids, while promoting and encouraging an active lifestyle.

By enlisting the help of thousands of kids and adults across the United States, the Globetrotters established a world record in 2008 with the simultaneous dribbling of basketballs, all in the name of fun and fitness. Some participants also posted their pictures on the Globetrotters’ official Web site in an enthusiastic show of support.

Globetrotter players recognize that an active lifestyle can mean anything from dribbling a basketball, to riding a bike or walking the dog. By teaming up with the Harlem Globetrotters, fitness can be fun and rewarding.

Kids, take the President’s Challenge, and earn your Active Lifestyle Patch, when you maintain your goal of one hour of daily activity.  The personal activity log makes it fun and easy to track the time spent on activities.
