he shoots, he scores!

During the months of November and December, Ammon practiced basketball with the 7th & 8th grade boys. For Jamboree Ball they met 3 times a week, two of which they would practice, and then once a week they scrimmaged against each other. They were coached by two of the dads, and it was great practice for their upcoming season beginning in January against other schools' teams. The boys got used to playing with each other, and increased their ability on the court.
 
In January, Ammon became a member of the school's 7th grade boy's basketball team. It was an 11-member team, and they were coached by two brothers who both played basketball in high school. The team played several other schools during their 7-week season, and they won all but 4 of their games. They had a great first season together, which ended in mid-February, and they were so awesome and fun to watch!

Ammon's abilities and skills increased during the season, and it was a joy to watch him play!




 


 
His favorite place to shoot was from the corner. He got several 3-pointers during the season from this same position.

 We were so proud of Ammon and his team for a great and exciting first season of playing ball together! We look forward to the years to come with this group of athletic boys playing the game together!
