Basketball's End

The boys finished their last basketball game this past Saturday and all I can say is that they have greatly improved.  From barely being able to dribble to being able to play as a team defensively and offensively, the transformation was amazing.

They really enjoyed it and will probably do it again this summer.  They had a great coach.

Basketball

The boys have been doing well at basketball considering their lack of training.  The coach who had been assigned to them flaked out and decided he wasn't going to coach after all. Unfortunately, he didn't bother to tell the parents and we showed up on game day with no coach and no practice. Luckily, the father of one of the other players stepped up and filled in and will be the new coach.

I've been taking the boys to the local park to work on their basic skills, like dribbling, passing and shooting, but they really need someone to put it all together for them.  Regardless, they are having a great time and have improved quite a bit.

  

Coaching Update

Alas...I have been restructured out of my coaching position. 

I'm not sure why.  

I think they didn't like my mentor.

*really it was a simple reorganization....I swear.*
