A total of 60 students participated in the basketball clinic for second-graders at Daniel Axford Elementary. Established by PE teacher and coach Shawn Regan, the program just completed its second year. Although it helps both boys and girls develop their basketball skills, the main focus is using teamwork to accomplish a common goal and developing a healthy respect for everyone’s talents, according to Regan. ‘At a young age many of these student/athletes have not had experience in a team sport like basketball, but they were excited to take a risk and be open-minded to try something new,? he said.
