Having a Ball...

Andrew started his first season of basketball a few weeks ago. He's definitely more of my "sports" kid, and I love watching him give it a shot at each new one he tries. Since 1st grade is the first year you can sign up to play bball, Andrew was a little hesitant but is slowly getting the hang of it. Coaching the kids are the boys G-A Varsity and JV Bball teams. They spend 1 hour every Saturday showing the kids the basics of the game - dribbling, passing, shooting and defense. After that, the kids get 15 minutes to do a little scrimmage against each other.

Passing...

Going for a shot...

Working on defense...

Finally game time...

It's all quite humorous to watch and makes me anxious to see if one day he will be the one "coaching" the little kids in the years to come!
