Mini Dribblers Basketball!

What do you get when you put 50  3 & 4 year olds in a gym? CRAZY PARENTS!!! Or Mini Dribblers Basketball in Huxley. Monday night was our first night of basketball for Reagan. This is the first year the parks and rec have offered it so it was a bit CHAOTIC to say the least :)! Reagan was all decked out in matching shoes, shorts, and shirt (thanks to her daddy and ebay!). Jon is one of the coaches on Reagan's team, but seeing that it starts at 6pm and he can't get there until after 6pm I am helping.  I asked Jon when he signed up for this if he had ever been in a room with 3 yr. olds for more than 5 minutes. I said this is what will happen: one child will be excited, one will run over to hug their mom, one will cry because they want the ball, one will do the opposite of what you tell them, one will spin in circles until they get dizzy and fall down, one will pick their nose.... etc. Well REAGAN accomplished everything on that list herself!

There are 6 teams. Each team spent about 10 minutes at each station (1st mistake!) Then they would rotate to the next station with new coaches (2nd mistake) and they ended with a team picture at 7:30pm (BIG Mistake!!). Again, first year! Next week there will be shorter stations and coaches will travel with their team and we will be out of there by 7:15!!

 At the stations they worked on : Dribbling, Rebounding, Passing, Defense, Conditioning,& Shooting.

Overall Reagan had fun, but considering she is usually in bed by 7:30 (as are most of the kids there) we got a little tired and crabby...daddy too!! Kamryn LOVED watching the action so much she slept for 9 hours straight that night!! We will see how next week goes!! Stay tuned...
