Dyckman Basketball Tournament
The Dyckman Basketball Tournament was founded by Kenneth Stevens and takes place Monsignor Kett Playground on West 204 Street and Nagle Avenue (near Dyckman Street).

The Dyckman Games have been going on for fifteen years, but Nike extended sponsorship in 2005, adding the slogan "The city is watching" to its ads, found in the subways and elsewhere.
