Spencer plays B-ball

Spencer has a basketball standard outside in the street, right in front of our home.  He loves to shoot baskets when the weather permits.  He wrote a paper about wanting to be a pro-basketball player.  So when the city posted that Basketball season would begin and that it was $35 to play.  I asked him if he wanted to play on a team.  He said, "YES".  So each Tuesday he practices with his team and each Saturday, beginning in January (But I didn't write about it because I was talking about ME) he has been playing Basketball with his team.  The Kings.  The Kings have won two games and lost two games so far.  He has four more Saturday's to play.  Spencer is not an aggressive player, he's not an aggressive person, but he enjoys playing and he is having a good experience learning to play on a team.  He wants to try out for 9th grade basketball next year and I am encouraging him to do so.  Eric is along for the ride as much as possible, we just informed him on Saturday that you can not make 10 points when you make a basket.  So Spencer is enjoying this sport and I'm thankful he has a great coach, who is great with all the kids on the team. 
GO SPENCER!
GO KINGS!
