The former NBA goalkeeper played and trained in the National Basketball League (NBL) in Australia for 25 years.

Gameabove Sports, the Gameabove sports division, a brand rooted in philanthropy, has made a donation $ 800,000 Aud at the Foundation Bruton Basketball to ensure that it remains strong and impactful. It is now known as BBF, powered by Gameabove Sports. “We believe in improving children’s lives. Calvin has done incredible work and inspiring coaching and education for young men and women, helping them to aspire to be the best possible,” said the president of Gameabove Keith J. Stone.
One of Bruton’s favorite messages to children is that “teamwork has the dream”, and he says that the partnership with Gameabove Sports has helped realize his dream for his foundation. “Gameabove’s commitment and financial assistance have brought BBF and I to a whole new level of excitement. The opportunity is the one of which I am eternally grateful. This will help to raise young people all around Australia. “”

The foundation has helped thousands of children. The stories of success make us move forward. There is no limitation to help anyone who becomes a better version of themselves.”
Bruton played his university basketball at Wichita State From 1972 to 1976, winning the first team of all the conferences of its last year.
