Stepping Beyond Sports is a career exposure and mentorship event that helps student-athletes explore real pathways beyond the game—connecting youth with employers, colleges, trade programs, and community leaders.

Vendor tables are now open for Stepping Beyond Sports — in partnership with the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame during the Western Massachusetts Senior All-Star Game on Friday, March 20, 2026. 

 

This is a high-visibility opportunity to engage directly with student-athletes and families while giving youth exposure to real career paths. Employers, colleges, trade programs, entrepreneurs, and community organizations are invited to showcase what they do, share resources, and spark interest in next-step opportunities.

Contact Jayne Melendez for more information on tabling opportunities at Jaynemelendez@followmysteps.org.
