Basketball is our Life

As you can see, Basketball is a HUGE part of our lives.  Actually, all sports are but basketball has special place in our hearts.  Jonny and Gavin both play in an adult league at Aramco each year.  Jonny has played with the teacher team for the past three years.  It's always fun to watch father and son playing the game together.

Jonny's unique layup style.

 Gavin has worked hard with all kids in developing their basketball skills.  He is a great coach.  It was fun watching them play together but half way through the season Jonny started playing with the high school varsity team in the league so that they could get some extra practice.  This meant that Jonny and Gavin now became opponents.  Gavin coaches the varsity team so he would play double role as coach and player in some of the games.





 Not sure if Gavin will ever give up playing basketball.  There are some men on other teams who are in their late 50's who used to play on Division 1 college basketball teams in the states, I guess if you love the game, you find every way to keep playing.
