The girls’ basketball team did great last year and will hopefully do even better this year! They have been spending a lot of time and hard work practicing. They practice Monday through Thursday and sometimes on Friday from eight-fifteen to nine-fifteen AM. They were going to have their first game on February 4, playing against Lake Shore Middle School, but it sadly got canceled.
When they practice at first they warm up by shooting and dribbling around, and then they do drills for example one of them is called “figure eight layup drills’’. After they are finished with all of their drills their coach, Mr Mc Masters, lets them play a fun game called scrimmage where they go into teams of five and shoot baskets against each other.
Their first home game is on February 6 and they will be playing against Crestwood Middle School. All of the players are trying so hard and are ready to do great this year!
