Little Dribblers (Kindergarten and 1st graders) and Shooting Stars (2nd and 3rd graders) completed another great year. Participants learned listening, passing, dribbling, rebounding, defensive and shooting skills. All participants showed a great deal of progress as the 8-week clinic proceeded.
Coach Bob believes there is a bright future ahead for the girls and boys basketball teams with these dedicated basketball players.
Congratulations to all, Coach Bob, Coach Adam, Coach Zander
