Alex Ostermann and Kyle Skramko have unbelievably quick times for boys 13-14 year olds" Congratulations to our local JrNBA Skills Champions! We are fortunate to have Joseph Pizzingrillo, Allison LaMonica, and Kyle Skramko qualify to advance to the NY Regional to be held at Madison Square Garden Saturday April 4th after the Knicks game.

All of the kids that participated in the Skills Challenge did a great job and showed awesome basketball fundamentals. The Skills Challenge sponsored by SINGULAR is a grassroots event that is an opportunity for kids to showcase their excellence in the core basketball skills of shooting, dribbling and passing. The Skills Challenge is also intended to encourage youth participation in sport while promoting sportsmanship.

As a proud member of the JrNBA and JrWNBA, we suggest you select the JrNBA logo on our website for information about the Skills Challenge, NBA Cares, free camps, and pledge to be a S.T.A.R. (sportsmanship, teamwork, attitude, & respect). Check out the links for Coaches, Players, and Parents. Each link will lead you to an awesome guide that provides valuable basketball information that everyone should read.

George Bruns will also be running a summer camp that we highly recommend.

Our website main page at www.gardencitybasketball.org, our background link, and K-1-2 Clinic links provide a wealth of information on our program.

We believe that Garden City Basketball has the vision, dedication, and sets the standard for youth basketball in the village of Garden City.
