July 31, 2024: Portsmouth Travel Basketball wrapped up our first official non-league programming. A six-week summer Sunday workout series was available to all Portsmouth Area youth rising to 1st through 5th grade. Over 50 kids participated in drills, skills and games. Our first workout series was provided free of charge and allowed kids who had not previously participated in travel tournaments a feel for what an organized travel basketball team workout looks like. We will continue to offer workouts throughout the year at a low cost with the next series planned for early fall 2024.
