HOOPS' Kids
HOOPS' Kids come from several islands but they all have one thing in common: they like to play and basketball has become their favorite sport. Two days a week female basketball player/coaches Lilly Sewell and Raysa Chiwi meet all interested kids at the Andersen Field outdoor court for basketball drills and fun.
Last Thursday Keitani Graham, HOOPS' youth director, visited the HOOPS' kids and gave them a talk about the importance of getting along and of not using substances. His message, between jokes and giggles, was well received as the kids listened attentively.
Then it was back to the work at hand: dribbling, passing, jump stops and cutting... with more giggles and laughter... If you are on Weno Island on Tuesday or Thursday afternoons and have nothing to do, come over to the court and join HOOPS' kids.
