Evan is participating in the Upward basketball program this year and January 8th was his first practice! The team lined up and as you can see Evan is WAY taller than the rest of the team! Evan's coach is Wes Dalton who is someone we have known for years. I hope Evan has a great experience this year and learns some basic skills.
Snapped this picture when Evan was just catching a pass. They did several drills that focused on passing, shooting, dribbling, and pivoting.
Evan is working on shooting. He is focusing on shooting with his right hand and just guiding the ball with his left rather than pitching it. It takes a lot of concentration. He did manage to make several baskets during practice!
The weather is cold but we are hoping to get in several practices before his first game January 24th!
