Work today, build for tomorrow.
Coupeville High School basketball coaches welcomed 16 middle school-aged girls to the gym Tuesday and Wednesday for the Firecracker Skills Clinic.
The event gave Wolf hardwood guru Megan Richter and her crew a chance to work with young hoops stars entering grades 6-9.
“We had a great turn out,” Richter said. “Each drill and day we pushed them a little harder and challenged them to do the hard thing, even if it wasn’t perfect.
“We talked a lot about how mistakes are how we learn and grow and it’s okay to make them,” she added.
“Focused a lot on how to be a good teammate and encourage each other to be their best.”
The bright future of Central Whidbey hoops.
While the girls were building their skills set, they were also developing their love for God’s Chosen Sport.
“Most importantly, we learned to find the joy and fun in basketball,” Richter said.
“I’m very proud of the work these girls did and can’t wait to see the growth throughout our program!!”
The sound of success echoes through the CHS gym.
