J & K Basketball Pics
We left the farm at 8:30 AM & drove to the 5th-6th Center
in Brownsville to watch Julie play basketball. We make the 90 mile drive
in around an hour and a half most weekends when the grandkids are
playing ball. In the summer it is softball/baseball and in the winter it
is basket ball. Julie has been playing nearly the entire game most of
the time. She jumps center and plays forward during the rest of the
game. There are two girls and four boys usually there on her team for
the games. The Celtics have won all of their games (4) so far this
season. After Julie's game was over we drove to KYROCK Elementary for
Kyle's game. His team is the Tigers and Brent is the coach. There are
three girls and 4 boys on the Tigers. In this league it is more about
teaching the game rules and some skills instead of winning or losing.
Brent does a good job of letting each kid have a turn of handling the
ball and trying to get a shot. We really get a kick out of watching the
little ones learning and making mistakes. Most all of the fans cheer
when a basket is made for either team.
Kyle
is a bit ahead of most of the kids. He still has a lot to learn though.
