Basketball Bootcamp

Today was Jake's first day of basketball bootcamp.  He really likes basketball, which is a good thing because this class was INTENSE.

A smile before entering the torture chamber.


The class started off with running to center court and back for a few minutes.  He could barely stand.  Then they lined up and started drills.  All of the skills moved along quickly.  Only three water breaks in 90 minutes.


We couldn't believe how well he kept up with the big kids.  He was probably the youngest, definitely the shortest.  He really stepped up to the pressure.  Later on in the class, one of the boys started crying!






A picture at a water break.  He was dripping with sweat.


This is after he asked how much time was left and I said an hour.


They broke into two group based on ages.  The class covered 1st grade through high school.


We expected him to say he was never going back again, but guess what - HE LOVED IT.
