Syndi & Upward Basketball

Syndi has been playing basketball in the Upward program this year. She began with basically no knowledge of the game. We bought a basketball goal to put in our driveway for her to practice and us to teach her a thing or two.
Her skills have improved tremendously, and by the final two games of the season, our timid girl (who ducked when the ball came at her) caught passes and actually scored. We were thoroughly impressed. And she had a blast.
Here she is pictured (1) with her team, (2) on the court with the other 4 ready for the start of a period, and (3) taking a free throw after getting fouled. Way to go Syndi!
