Basketball - The End of Another Season

Basketball seemed to have a shortened season this year...started at the beginning of January and ending this past weekend.  "Little Man" is finally old enough to start playing in a league where games are actually played -- rather than just skill practice/building taking place.

"Little Man" went into the season not sure if he wanted us to sign him up for another year of basketball.  However, after some gentle prompting to "stick with it" he decided to play for "one more year."  Now that the season is over it is a whole different story!  He had a fantastic time this year, learned a ton about how to actually apply the skills that he has learned to the game, and at the end of the season got to play during half-time of the high school boys varsity game.  His coaches were both great...my hat goes off to them for keeping an entire team of 8 and 9 year olds under control!

Here are a couple of photos from throughout the season:

Pass?  Or Shoot?  (Looks like he's getting ready to pass!)
