Great Basketball Season, Olivia


Best season of any sport yet!!!  Olivia played "up" with the 1st and 2nd graders and she had such a wonderful season!

I never had to argue with her once to go get ready for practice.  Sometimes that was an issue with other sports.  Not with basketball.  She woke up on Thursdays mornings excited that she had practice that night!


Being tall and probably the tallest on the team (and sometimes even on the entire court) helped her game tremendously.  She was able to rebound and post up often.  It always fell in her favor.


Olivia made several baskets this season on the 8 foot hoop and learned to dribble  with control.


I think a lot of basketball will be in her future.  The season is now over - and off to soccer we go.....

Justin and I feel very strongly about team sports!  It's a big commitment and eats up some weekends - but the outcome is always well worth it!
