WRAP UP........
I wanted to thank all my girls who came to basketball this year. It's amazing to see such interest in the sports that I offer, and it's really a blessing to be at a place where my girls feel comfortable to step into something that's foreign to them. We certainly were champions of the day in spirit.
Thank you to all you parents as well. I know I ask alot. Getting them to me for 7:45am isn't easy, I'm certain. But it's really the favourite part of all our days, and a time that we cherish.
And to all of you for coming to our exhibition game, and tournament. The support I get at Gledhill doesn't happen everywhere.
Thank you so much.

Wednesday practice is open to all girls.
