Basketball training with Mike from the Nelson Giants.

On Monday 21st of February we had basketball training with Mike from the Nelson Giants basketball team. We worked with him from 11:45 until 12:20. The class learnt basketball skills such as the Long Drop, the Egg Beater and the Nutcracker as well as a easy way to shoot perfectly. It involved making your arm a giraffe's neck and flicking your wrist, then pointing your fingers downwards which, makes the ball fly high  above your head while spinning and falling into the net. He also taught us the proper way to dribble, including how to dribble down by your knees, with your left hand, right hand, with two balls and how to dribble while flicking the ball between both hands. He gave us some things to practice at home and made us do push -ups!!! We had  ball! (He he!) We are very  thankful for this brilliant experience! Thanks Mike!!! :)
