You Made Three Points

H, you scored in your first points in a basketball game today!

You made one shot from the field and then got fouled and made one free throw later in the game for a total of three points!

Running an offense had proved difficult for a group of first-grade girls still learning to dribble…

You have to dribble, look up the court, pass the ball, have teammates that can get open, and finally be able to shoot the ball in the goal.

So I have been trying to work on defense with y’all:

  • Keep your arms up.
  • Stay between the girl you are guarding and the goal.
  • Move your legs.
  • And if your girl gets the ball – go take it away from her.

We lost the game 11-22 today, but y’all are playing better and better every week.

Did I forget to say here that I was the coach?

Hannah’s mom Leandra and I are coaching.

I love you.
