SAISA Basketball

we had a whole week of basketball and it was very tough. we ran a lot and worked on fundamentals because there were people in the team that have never played basketball before. it was nice to go back and practice the things you take for granted.

we made the first cut to the team last Friday where we chose 12 out of the 16 trying out. there will be another cut where we choose the travelling team of 10. I was chose captain and so i had a meeting with the coach to decide who to chose for the team. this was very tough because i felt like i was in no position to choose. I suggested some ideas and the team was chosen.

practice is getting tougher and skills are improving. we are playing more games and working on more detail rather than only fundamentals. i hope to further develop my basketball skills and my goal is to bring the team together to come first in the SAISA tournament.

Alzheimer's Foundation

The people that have founded the Alzheimer's project came in to give us an understanding of what we were dealing with. we all gained a deeper understanding of the dementia.

i learned how to prevent it and what are the first signs of the dementia. i realized that my grandfather has the early signs. the dementia comes in three different stages. my grandpa seems to be in early stage one.

they taught us how we can help and they gave us a deeper insight on the project and where all the money is going to.
