SOUTH WICK – The Southwick Rick Center hosted a basketball clinic for local Suburban Basketball kids Sunday. Dr Steve Sobel, a noted speaker and Springfield Slamm semi-pro coach, conducted two 90-minute sesions for grades 5-8 at the Powder Mill Jr. High School. Semi-pro player Bobby Moore (New Haven, Conn.) demonstarted proper dribbling, passing and defensive techniques to the 24 participants in attendance. Dr Sobel discussed life lessons and how athletics can lead to success in the classroom.
Due to the overwhelming success, officials for the Southwick Rec Center basketball committee have announced plans to offer three clinics next year for all players of the Rec Center.
