Start Smart Basketball sessions are held 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. every Tuesday, January 9 – February 13 at Auke Bay Elementary School. Children work with an adult in their lives in a supportive environment to learn the basic skills of basketball: dribbling, shooting, passing and agility. Adults are active participants in the program.
