We signed Austin up for basketball this year through our YMCA. It's the biggest b-ball program for kids in the valley. Last year we had too much going on with my treatments and traveling a lot, so we weren't able to play. Austin was excited about having his Dad be his coach too! The first game was HILARIOUS. Lots of double-dribbling, traveling, air balls, turnovers, and not a lot of rebounding! HA! But what do you expect from 6 yr olds? Many of them have never played before, so it will take some time. We have a couple of really good kids on our team (having older brothers help), so we aren't too shabby! Austin is getting better at defending, dribbling and passing, and hopefully with lots of practice will get better at shooting and rebounding! I'll try to take some video before the end of the season to post...
