Chicago Tournament two days away!

In two short days we will finally be heading to Chicago for the 2009 Observation Tournament.  We are so excited.  The girls have been progressing along wonderfully, with limited time, and a lot of things implemented, they have handled it very well.  Thursday is travel to the tournement, stopping at the Parkers for dinner and pool time.  Friday is Chicago day...Navy Pier, Niketown, ESPN Zone, White Sox games (phew..a lot), Saturday is 6 games and Willow Creek Church possibly with a relaxed evening in the hotel for team bonding and hang out, Sunday is four games and Arlington Park Horse Races and then we head back just in the nick of  time for fair!!  What a whirlwind...but what fun it will be.

Lifting has gone super.  I know I can see a significant difference in strength and even stamina, not to mention they are more aggressive!  They are getting the idea of overloading to get stronger, and how far they can push themselves.  They usually underestimate themselves big time!

Last day of summer bball is Tues. July 28th.

Thank you to all for getting your girls to summer league ball, and getting them in lifting.  It's been a success and we will be starting off on a awesome foot this November!!
The younger girls...we are depending on your commitment to helping to build a strong basketball program.  Never sit back and think, you are good enough!  Always stive to work hard and get better.  You will always be better than someone and someone will be better than you, the goal is always improve and work and show your determination.
