Former national player hosts second Basketball clinic in Linden
The second James Brusche Basketball clinic for Primary schools in Linden hosted by the Brusche Basketball Foundation was held at the Mc Kenzie Sports Club Hard Court on Thursday last.
These budding basketballers practice dribbling the ball during the clinic at the MSC Thursday.
According to James Brusche, the clinic coincides with the James Brusche Basketball Tournament which is ongoing presently. “We want to give back to the community and we are happy when we see the enthusiasm of the children who are looking forward to this exercise.”
Brusche said initially four (4) clinics were planned – one in Berbice, One in Georgetown, One in Linden and one on the East Coast but due to all the red tape two clinics will be held in Linden instead.
James Brusche, a former National player at the junior level for 3 years and the senior level for 10 years, said he always had the zeal to come back to Linden and do something for the youths. “I want them to realize that life and basketball are related. You can’t go through life without someone helping you.”
Brusche noted that he wants these clinics to be ongoing so the local coaches will continue to work with the teachers and students. “They will have a league in a year or two depending on how they develop. So when they move on to Secondary school they would have an idea of the game.”
Other members of the Brusche Foundation are two older brothers Clifton and Mike who was a National Coach and Captain. (Jacquey Bourne)
