Josh had his first Basketball game today and his team did surprisingly well! They were the home team, so they wore their jersey on the white side. (I am learning this as I go, so Basketball jerseys are reversible for home/visitor team) They play 8 minute quarters, with a minute in between and a 5 minute halftime. He got to start and they have 5 players on at a time while playing a FULL court. It was interesting to say the least! Josh was into all the running, (gee, what a surprise) and he even got the ball a few times. There are three players on the team who have played before, and needless to say they dominated the game. Josh was among the other 5 that..well..just wanted the ball, and wasn't quite sure what to do with it once they got it. I am glad they didn't call on NO dribbling, because I think everyone was doing that. All in all we were winning the game all the way until the two minute warning, and then they scored twice to make the final score 12-8. They tried their very best and in the end, they seriously were dragging their little feet to the benches.
A+ for effort, and better luck next time Bear Cats!!!!
