Summer Girls Hoops!!!!!

We know that team sport is key to building a sense of self worth in the growing child.  We have also found that, the culture in our communities supports boys sports at a much higher level than girls.  We also find that for this specific age range (basically, Middle School aged kids) there are relatively few options for kids, regardless of gender.  We have also found that no one program meets the needs of the broad range of development and skill level present in this age range.  This program was begun specifically to address that gap by providing different tiers of involvement, depending on each girl’s skill and interest
