My son's mini-basketball team (under-12) won the provincial championship (like winning state) for their bracket (small population areas).
They had a tough semi where my boy scored the winning basket with 2 seconds on the clock.
In the finals, they had a close first half but pulled ahead by 9 never to look back at the end. Brad was chosen the MVP of the game!
This win comes after placing 5th in their first year of playing at that level.
I'm proud not only for the win, but the boys played as a team and everone stepped up at a different time. Brad plays well and hard, but isn't a stand-out, so that made his honour sweeter.
Their coach is a Christian man who played everyone in the game so all would have a chance to participate. He's calm, cool and collected, and as parents, we're so impressed with his dedication and character.
Ok, now I'm done!
GO DRAGONS!!!
