A reminder to the groups at SPJH on Sundays. Start time for 6-7 Boys group 1 is at 2:30 with group 2 starting at 4 and 8-10 boys beginning at 5:30. Our schedule is not accurate (we are in the process of updating).
Also the last session for our program will be on Sunday, April 13 and not April 6 as originally noted. Where we lost the first Sunday after the Christmas break due to power/heat issues, our make-up session will be on April 13. This is not yet reflected on our schedule.
We will also be holding our closing pizza banquet at the end of our program. Details to follow.

 Some of our players in Grades 4, 5 & 6 took part in the second annual NLBA 3 on 3 Jamboree that was held on November 22 at the Power Plex Facility in St. John's. A fun time was had by all as they got to play a friendly game of 3 on 3 basketball with other basketball clubs. Thank you to our volunteer coaches and referees in helping make this another positive experience for the kids. |
