Ball Was Life

  • Raue Center 26 North Williams Street Crystal Lake, IL, 60014 United States (map)

“Ball Was Life,” is a documentary film that tells the story of a group of middle-aged men who recruite their sons to maintain their dominance in the local men’s recreational basketball league.

Led by Kevin aka “Slim the Barber,” the team has played together for years, winning several championships. But with age catching up, they turn to their sons to keep their winning streak alive. The film follows their journey through the inaugural season, as they face new challenges and rivalries.

Join us for this premiere screening as a part of Raue Center’s Summer Film Series. We promise an unforgettable evening filled with inspiration, laughter, and love for the game.

Featuring: Kevin and Calvin Slimko, David Binion and David Binion Jr., Wallace, Julian and Anthony Lynch, Mike Clarke, Adam Pischke, and Sherick Simpson.
