Spring Hill Hosts YBOA Tournament

All this weekend our team has been hosting a YBOA 12 and under basketball tournament to help raise money for our local YBOA team, the Mobile Celtics.  I coach a team and Coach T coaches a team.  Everyone involved with Badgers Basketball has been donating their time to help make this tournament a success.  It has been a real pleasure for all of us at Spring Hill to take part of this event.  Coaching these young kids is like a breath of fresh air.  The Celtics when we first started coaching them were a lot like this blog was when it was first created, just a blank piece of paper waiting for information.  We have been coaching the team for 2 months now and every practice and game has been a joy to be involved with.  It is great to see young kids learn new concepts and strategies that they have never been exposed to before in their young basketball careers.  Watching our teams execute a play, defense, or just giving all out effort makes me crack a smile that could grin down a Grizzly bear.  It has been real special to have our Badgers being involved with our Celtics teams.  It is a special spectacle to see our big 6'8" center Nick Brown work with our Celtics post players the same way we work with him during our practices.  All of our players and members of our Badgers family who helped out with this tournament are greatly appreciated and it shows that the Badgers are progressing as a team and becoming a true family that we are able to come together and help out when help is needed. There is nothing better than a compliment from our wonderful parents telling us that we have been doing a great job with the team and the tournament.  Thanks to everyone who worked and we have enjoyed putting this tournament on!
