 Students from Yacosca Middle School and the Yacosca Express Youth Basketball Team improved their shooting skills at a basketball camp where they learned from NBA shooting coach David Nurse. I think sports, not just the sports itself with competition, but especially basketball as a team sport, it carries over to everything. I mean, how to work with groups, how to motivate, how to lead. I mean, it's not just there on the court, but it's also going to carry on the rest of their life as well. Nurse worked with them on movement, ball handling, passing, and shooting skills. Several sailors also volunteer as coaches for the basketball teams. Four or five sailors that volunteer from refing to coaching, and it's great for them because it gets them involved in the community, gives them things to do besides just stay in their room and on the computer, gets them involved in the community out here and it's great.
