PROGRAM UPDATES:
WINTER BASKETBALL
We had an amazing first day of basketball this past Sunday. I want to share with you how our Del Riv teams did in their leagues!
Space Jam 2: A New Legacy
Our Pre-K & Kindergarten groups are getting the hang of playing basketball and transitioning up and down the floor which is a major key in getting them ready to play fundamental basketball. We have a lot of work to do with them but also plenty of time. It was amazing to see them all out on the floor enjoying themselves in what was some of the players first ever basketball game.
Space Jam
1st & 2nd graders are always a joy to watch. While a lot of them have the concept of moving from offense to defense down, we are still working on their ability to dribble the ball when they get it. It was a lot of fun to see them competing against each other and working on some of the skills they have learned so far this season.
We saw some really good basketball and a lot of improvement for our older boys and girls leagues this season in just the first game! Here are the results we had this past weekend:
