A former Chicago church dating back to 1885 is serving a new function for locals as a state of the art basketball facility.

The Church of the Epiphany has been converted by Nike into its latest Just Do It HQ. The church-turned-court is decked out with custom stained glass, locker rooms, and weight rooms.

Open to local high school hoops teams throughout the month of August—including the public on Saturdays—the space will reportedly call on pro coaches to help young ballers sharpen their skills.

According to ABC7 Chicago, those in attendance today got a surprise in the form of former Bulls star Scottie Pippen, who stopped by to share some words of wisdom with the athletes.

Located at 207 S Ashland Ave, readers can sign up to attend the Chicago Just Do it HQ at nike.com.
