Lil' Dribblers

Every Saturday morning for the past 6 weeks Carter and Kody go to Lil' Dribblers. It is a intro to basketball class. As you can see the ages are 3-5, we had to improvise a little on Carter's age to get him in! Don't tell!

On the first day of class all the kids got a Lil' Dribblers Shirt. Carter would like to live in it. It is a close runner up to the Steve Nash one.

Here is a picture of Carter warming up with a little coaching from dad. They have about 5 different size hoops ranging from about 3 feet to 6 feet. Of course Carter will only shoot on the 6 foot hoop. He can keep up with the 5 year olds in the shooting department, as for following directions and waiting his turn, well that is where the 2 year old really shines through!

Carter just releasing the ball! Nice shot buddy!!

This is Jackson, he is six and he is the coaches "assistant". He demonstrates the drills and skills the kids are to do. Of course Carter wants nothing to do with the other kids and only wants to play with Jackson. The two of them are pretty funny. Carter moves around the court yelling ...."Defense, Defense!" trying to get the ball away from Jackson. As you can see he is a big fouler! Ever since Carter was born he thought being a baby was a complete waste of time....he has always wanted to be 5.....he has a hard time remembering he is only two.

Last time Jackson was chasing Carter and Carter fell head first on the court. Jackson's dad immediately ran over and started to help Carter up and apologize. But Carter got up, brushed himself off and said "Now I get the Ball!"

Oh my little man! He defiantly has a passion for sports, we knew at 13 months when we took him to his first Phoenix Suns Game and he got to play on the court that it was all over. I love you buddy! Now we just need to practice keeping the aggression on the court!
