My Project

I would like to have these volleyballs and basketballs to form clubs to learn the fundamentals of each sport. During the covid pandemic many of the students wanted to play volleyball and basketball but with the 6 feet rules it made it very difficult. I manage to coach volleyball during the 2021-22 school year, by having them wear mask and stay the 6 feet distance. no easy task for anyone. The club has grown tremendously that I have about 25 students currently playing again this school year. We currently rotate between four other schools to play organized volleyball and it has been life changing for a lot of students. I have a strict B average rule and the students stick to it.

I would like to put together a basketball club to teach them the basic fundamentals of basketball.
