Basketball Extravagan-tastic!

  1. Updates

More than 200 aspiring basketball stars joined Playworks for our 12th annual Girls Basketball Extravaganza. Kids participated in skill-building activities and games for the better part of two hours while supportive family and community members cheered them on. Special thanks to all of the coaches and staff that ran the event; parents, relatives and friends who drove to the events and encouraged the girls, and most of all the kids who came out and made this year's extravaganza an incredible success.
