David's First Basketball Game

David started playing basketball with the YMCA this summer. He's always had an interest in basketball and played on the intramural teams at school in Bakersfield ... and now gets the chance to take it up a notch. His practices are at least 2 hours a day 2 days a week and he has games every Saturday. His coach runs and drills the team hard ... which paid off since they won their first game this past Saturday.
David is one of the fastest kids on the team. He is aggressive on the court and doesn't let any of the bigger boys or boys with more experience intimidate him. He keeps up with them and gets in their face. During the game on Saturday he had some great rebounds, blocks, steals and passes.

We're really proud of David and happy that he is really getting into basketball.
