The Curlee kids go to basketball camp!


This week is basketball camp at MCA. On Monday, Wade and Hunter put on their new Upward basketball outfits (thanks to the Gables:)) and were all ready to go. Levi put on his Upward outfit to match his brothers. The photo is of the three boys right before I registered them for the camp.

During registration, the camp director commented on how our family was already a team in itself! As I registered the two boys, he asked me, "What about him?" (pointing to Levi) I told him Levi was only five. "He can come too!" was his prompt reply. Levi was very excited!! The only glitch was that he was already signed up for swimming lessons during the same time. So....each day he goes to basketball camp until 10:15, then to swimming until 10:45 then back to basketball.

The same camp director is also holding an afternoon camp for middle and high schoolers. After much agonizing, Milly decided to participate as well. She is on the Cavaliers team. I can't say she loves it as much as the boys do, but she is doing very well and meeting some more people here. She even received the "shooter of the day" award today!

The boys have all gotten awards, too. Wade got "shooter of the day" on Tuesday. He was on the Suns team but was traded today to the Jazz team. Hunter, on the Pistons team, received "passer of the day" on Wednesday. Levi, on the Cavaliers team, received "rebounder of the day" on Wednesday - he set a new record of the youngest ever rebounder of the day.

Keith,

These look like some future NBA players - especially with Caoch Curlee teaching them how to play!

Hey Matt --

It is good to hear from you!!!
They really enjoyed bb camp.
Actually this year I will be coaching JV boys. I am looking forward to it. We play international rules. 24 second clock, wide lane, and longer 3 point shot.
