Jr. Jazz Basketball

It's the start of another basketball season...

I love watching Jacob play ball. His goal today was to make more than 2 baskets in this game... He made 12 of the 16 points...

I am super proud... but, we did have to have a little chat about passing. (This I have to blame on Mark!!!! For those of you who know how competitive he is you must realize how competitive our little boy is becoming. ) His response to my "passing" question was..., "Coach told me to shoot if I was open! I was open a lot..." my response... , "Buddy, It is great to win and make shots but is more important to be a team player. You need to pass... If they pass back then you can shoot. " I think it took, he really does listen to our suggestions... so hopefully he can learn to balance his competitive nature and being a team player.

He is one of the taller boys so he naturally gets put in as center... It is the perfect spot to get rebounds... so fun to watch... I am so impressed at how the whole team has improved so much from last year. Good Job Boys!!!!
