3rd Grade Basketball Team


Henry is on the 3rd grade basketball team for our school. During third grade our schools basketball teams collaborate with a nearby town park and rec. The coaches are two dads that stepped up to coach these boys, even though they have never coached before. if we have our own coaches we can have our own team and practice at our school otherwise through this collaboration the boys would have been split up and put on different teams.

They practice once a week up at the school & then Saturday mornings they have a scrimmage against one of the other teams through this program. 

They have done to Saturday scrimmage is so far. The first scrimmage they we're tied and played really well against that team. But the scrimmage this past Saturday didn't go so well. The team they were playing obviously had coaches who were experiwenced and had the boys doing plays already and the boys they were playing we're very good at defense.

There are six different third grade teams and four of them are from the town that the park and rec department is in. Eventually those teams will be in the highest division for sports whereas our town will be class 1A, because our town is so small. I believe the other team that plays part of this park and rec collaboration is also a 1A team.
