For my project, I chose to do a youth basketball camp. It was for, but limited to, the Phoenix Talent school district. My partner Ariana and I taught each of our students the fundamentals and techniques of basketball while maintaining a positive attitude all around.

The Goal It was the start of the 1st period. Me, Potter and Rock were on the bench. We still had to wait 2 shifts, but it felt like 10 seconds. So the black puck is deep in the other team’s zone so me and Potter chase it down. “I got left you got right!” I yell.

So with Rocco’s guy wide open me a Potter worry so…

“Go ahead David, have at them! “My grandpa roared from the sidelines of the soccer pitch, as I stepped on to the field to get into position.

The game kicked off as our team held possession, our leading goal scorer Pilo dribbles up the field and rips one from the 18 yard box. The shot races towards the right corner of the goal.

Freshman year gym class and glasses have always been old adversaries. Whether we were running the mile outside or playing basketball, they would always find a way to fall to the ground, or fog up with the heat of the gym. Regardless of our activities, I would constantly be on my toes, awaiting the next mishap. We had been playing volleyball, a sport that screams catastrophe in the face of those glasses. It was the other team’s turn to serve, with all the eyes of both teams on the server,…
