Description

This program is an instructional program led by parent volunteers. The parent volunteer coaches will introduce the skills needed for basketball including dribbling, passing, shooting, and playing defense. Younger kids play on a lowered hoop with a smaller ball and modified rules. Players will have approximately 3 weeks of practice and then play real games. Scores will not be kept during the games. 

Coaches:

Coaches meeting will take place on October 24th at 6 pm at the Community Center. 

Coaches will be able to pick up their binders and equipment. They will receive a bag with basketballs for their practices. Coaches must first confirm their practice times with the director before emailing their players.
