Upward Basketball
Jared has been involved in basketball this winter. One of the local churches has an Upward basketball league. The league has special rules such as prayer before the games and a short bible study during practice. Jared seems to have really enjoyed himself. He has a little trouble focusing on the game the whole time. And his shooting skills need a little work. But he has learn a lot of the basic of basketball like pivoting, dribbling, and defense. Jared seems to be pretty good at defense. The best part….he is exhausted after a game. It is a great outlet for his energy when there isn’t much else to do. I think Jared’s favorite part is the beginning of the game. They play Jock Jams music and all the players get to run in. The kids look so excited. Now if I could only learn how not to be anxious during the games all would be well.
