Today was another fun filled day of basketball games. The day started off at 8:00 with Ledger's game at Highland, and Brody's game at Stapley. I attended Ledger's game while Jeremy went to Brody's. I have to say....Ledger is actually starting to get how this game works. He is understanding what he needs to do when his team has the ball and what he needs to do when his team doesn't have the ball. (I think we call this offense and defense:)) He is actually yelling, "PASS!" to his team mates when he sees that he is clearly open and they aren't. And he is all over his man when he is on defense. I think he's been watching Case because he has some fancy footwork like his big brother.
So grateful that there is no stealing at this stage of the game. It takes every ounce of concentration Ledger has just to dribble the ball. These games are hilarious!
Jeremy headed over to Brody's game this morning while I was with Ledger. Brody is doing so much better this year with basketball. Although he is still pretty small compared to most of his opponents, he hustles and is having fun. Love this picture of Brody (number 11) trying to shoot the ball against these powerhouses!
These boys are good at this stage of the game. I am proud of Brody for wanting to play this year. He has learned tons and really has fun.
Poor guy is even small next to his own team mates.
Can you just see the amount of energy it takes this kid to get the ball up? Hopefully he will catch up to these tall dudes one day!
To end our day of basketball, we headed to Field to watch Case. This kid is fun to watch. He loves the game and it is obvious.
Here you can see a little double team on Case.
Case is a good shooter but he loves to take half court shots. We are working on getting him to get closer to the hoop before he takes his shot.
Case is starting to get the idea of getting the rebound. He may be short, but he is quick!
Even sitting on the bench with your team mates can be fun! This is a cute group of boys. Love this team and the coach!
