Basketball has been a multitude of postive things in my life since the day i picked up a ball at 7. In my lifetime, basketball has taken me to various places around the world. Because basketball is a played in all countries, it has paved a way of making positive relaitionships. I still currently play where ever and when ever i can. What i love about training is being able to share the love and the passion that i have for the game. It makes me feel like i am helping shape the youth in the communities in a positive way and to have an outlet that helps kids find something they can mentally drive them to a bright future.
