The Challenge
Sports can be a tremendous teacher of life skills for young
people. Building self-confidence, learning to work with others effectively, and
building the capacity to meet both adversities and successes are important components
of the sport experience.
The Solution
The goal of First Shot is to develop every participant
using a four-dimensional approach for building the skill and tool set needed to
succeed in life and take the "First Shot."
We will focus on growing:
- knowledge for the
mind
- skills for the
body
- desire for the
heart
- belief for the
spirit
After participating in First Shot, each child will be:
- more focused
- more passionate
- more knowledgeable
- more confident in their abilities!
The Mission
First Shot seeks to provide an opportunity for all levels
of basketball players (boys and girls) to excel in a safe environment. First Shot
also emphasizes the fundamentals and advanced skills of basketball. More importantly,
First Shot's focus is towards building a stronger, more courageous spirit to face
opportunities and obstacles that our youth will confront in life.
The Vision
Empowering children?s lives by positive reinforcement of
Christ like characteristics that will enable them to achieve the full potential
in their generation.
