Something in the Water

Norfolk, Virginia

Black Girls Tennis Club and World Street Soccer partnered to bring a fun-filled activation to the beach during Something in the Water festival.

The two-day activation titled ”PLAY” was an experience centered around JOY, encouraging attendees to, tap into imagination and have uninhibited fun. PLAY brings together the people, sports, activities and the great outdoors for public participation where joy and fun comes first and sports (regardless of your skill level) come second.
