Annual Holiday Basketball Clinic

Each year I lead a holiday clinic for our local CYO — Mt. Carmel. We had a great turnout and I really enjoyed working with the kids. It brings me a lot of joy to see so many boys and girls here playing basketball.

The parents here are fantastic too — so supportive. Many of them volunteer to coach and work with youth on a regular basis. It was a great day!

Visiting Vancouver

I had a great time in Vancouver with the Raptors for a kids clinic and a 3 on 3 tournament. I was with Jay Triano, the Raptors head coach. We worked with local youth and spoke to them about the importance of working hard and having a vision for success.

Jay was fabulous to work with! For someone with his success both as a player and as a coach to be so humble was outstanding. I have been to Vancouver a number of times, but have never had time to enjoy the stunning scenery. It has to be one of the most dramatic, beautiful cities in the world! I love the way the Mountains fall into the sea. Simply gorgeous!
