About the event
Her Time To Play is a national initiative from the Jr. NBA and WNBA co-created with the Women's Sports Foundation for girls age 7-14 to pair on-court training with off-court life skills lessons to build confidence and prepare them for the challenges of adolescence. Â This program is meant to inspire the next generation of girls to play basketball in a positive and healthy way!Â
This is a completely FREE program led by female Coaches from around this area to serve as Mentors to the girls in the program. Each Coach/Mentor in our program is certified/licensed by USA Basketball. The program will take place over the course of 12 weeks starting the first week of December (specific day/time will announced soon) and will run through February. Â We will meet for approximately 90 minutes each week - sessions will include going over that week's curriculum plus working on drills and playing basketball! We will have two separate groups: one group 7-10 year old girls as well as a separate group for 11-14 year old girls. Â
Each participant will receive:
- T-shirt
- Headband
- Wristband
- Participant Workbook
Each week a new topic will be covered, using WNBA role models to educate girls about being physically active and avoiding health-risk behaviors. Â We hope to even have some suprise guest speakers!
