[ad_1]
The “ALTbasketball Smaller Rim Concept” is being promoted to the National Basketball Association (NBA), to support in entertainment and player/fan engagement considerations.
Additionally, ALTbasketball, Inc. is announcing the development of the company’s new professional, national women’s basketball league, featuring the ALTbasketball Smaller Rim Concept and addi lower than the traditional 10’ in height.
The women’s game being played on a “lower rim” is on record as early as 2012, being requested by Geno Auriemma, the Winningest NCAA Women’s basketball coach.
ALTbasketball, a Delaware corporation, with operations in Louisville, KY, is led by Founder, Nick Lopez, former youth boys and girls basketball coach and trainer.
ALTbasketball, Inc. is promoting the “ALTbasketball Smaller Rim Concept” via website, social media and basketball events for the general public to review.
“ALTbasketball’s national professional women’s league is designed to be sustainable in itself… but actually it’s only the start of the ‘Growth and Sustainability Flywheel.’ The league will be the driving force behind increasing the interest and demand in female youth basketball which will in turn demand significant infrastructure changes nationwide including new courts specific to the ALTbasketball women’s game,” said Nick Lopez, Founder of ALTbasketball.
With the announcement of ALTbasketball, the company cites it now advances to “Phase 1,” the “Attention Phase” where concept is to be proven viable by sourcing the crowd and verifying support through testimonials and social sharing.
Once the fan demand is verified, ALTbasketball cites that sponsors will be onboarded, and the league will initiate in the next phase, identified as the “Entertainment Phase” where players will be established.
In the Entertainment Phase, ALTbasketball will facilitate try-outs in multiple states, with a model inspired by the AND 1 Mixtape Tour. ALTbasketball promotes that they will be “scouting, elevating, supporting and developing new stars of the game.”
“ALTbasketball is reverse engineered to give the fans what they want. The focus is not foremost on the player experience, but rather the fans and their specific interest. Fortunately, the economics suggest that where there is fan interest, money will flow. And where money flows, when a league is not restricted by legacy infrastructure, or bottlenecks of status quo thinking… it may be possible to scale, and scale big,” said Nick Lopez, Founder of ALTbasketball.

Author Lisa Doucette has published "Fatty, You Broke My Tire Swing!", a children’s book drawn from a painful memory of her own childhood, through Christian Faith Publishing.
The story follows a young girl named Lisa who climbs onto a tire swing expecting an afternoon of fun. A fall and a cruel remark from another child instead leave her confused and hurt. With her sister’s help and her faith, she works through the experience and arrives at forgiveness.
Doucette is a wife, teacher, and mother of two sons who has said she experienced the incident firsthand as a child. "I experienced this hurtful event as a child, and rewriting this story with a redemptive ending has allowed me to truly forgive," she said in the announcement. "I believe that forgiveness is the way to heal, and I hope this book helps other children understand that truth."
The book is categorized as juvenile fiction and centers on themes of empathy, agency, and choosing one’s response to cruelty rather than controlling it. The publisher describes it as a tool for helping children navigate hurt and process it through kindness rather than retaliation.
"Fatty, You Broke My Tire Swing!" is available at bookstores and through Apple Books, Amazon, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees value in children’s books that work from a real, specific memory rather than an invented scenario — that specificity is often what makes a book like this land with young readers rather than read as a generic moral lesson.

Christian Faith Publishing Releases Pamela B. Craig’s “Tears and a Tiara,” a Family Memoir of Childhood Cancer and Faith
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Pamela B. Craig has released "Tears and a Tiara: A Testimony of Faith, Hope, and Love," a memoir recounting her family’s experience after her child was diagnosed with cancer, according to the publisher’s announcement. The book is published through Christian Faith Publishing.
The announcement describes a family life upended by a diagnosis no parent expects to hear, and a narrative that follows the family through what the publisher calls heartache toward spiritual transformation. Craig frames the ordeal as a test of faith rather than only a medical crisis, according to the announcement, with the book positioned as both a personal testimony and an account meant to speak to readers facing their own hardship.
The title itself, pairing "tears" with "tiara," points to the book’s central tension: suffering alongside something the publisher’s description treats as a mark of grace or honor, a framing common in faith-based memoirs that cast a family’s hardest season as also a season of spiritual meaning.
Craig’s memoir joins a steady stream of personal narratives released through Christian Faith Publishing, which works with authors to bring faith-centered stories, often rooted in illness, loss, or caregiving, to print.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees this as part of a durable category of faith-based memoir: narrow in audience, but consistently in demand among readers looking for first-person accounts of hardship read through a spiritual lens.
