On Saturday, Feb. 1, Christchurch School varsity basketball coaches Taylor Carter (head girls basketball coach) and Joel Jorgensen (head boys basketball coach) hosted a free basketball clinic for local fifth through eighth grade boys and girls. More than 20 area athletes attended.

Participants worked on skills — footwork, passing, rebounding, layups, ball handling, shooting, and more — in small groups with Seahorse coaches and varsity players. They also received individual attention and coaching.

At “halftime” of the clinic, coaches gathered the attendees together to share advice, inspiration, and words of wisdom. The Christchurch players shared their stories as well.
