Coco's First Basketball Game

Coco joined the all-girls 8-11 y/o basketball league at the community center this season. She is on the same team--The Storm--as her good friend Ariel. They practice Mondays and Wednesdays and have games every Friday night. These girls run! Here are some pics from the first game.

(Apologies for the poor photographic quality--my camera takes crappy indoor action pictures.)

Even though she's a head shorter than anyone else on her team, Coco is a defensive specialist! She runs really fast and sneaks up underneath the tall girls and steals the ball! She had some great turnovers this week and she's proud of her contribution to her team's win (even though, officially, they don't keep score). Coach Paul is a real gem--along with the really sweet girls on the team, he's made Coco feel very welcome.

Future Globetrotter?
