A fitness chain in British Columbia that carried the name of Steve Nash fell victim to the coronavirus pandemic, and its bankruptcy has given the basketball star a victory he has wanted for years.
SNFW Fitness B.C. Ltd., which operated about two dozen Steve Nash Fitness World & Sports Club locations in the province, filed for creditor protection after Covid-19 forced it to close its doors and cut staff to six from 1,300.
