"On Saturday March 30th,  many young athletes took to the court to demonstrate their skills. The Steve Nash Youth Challenge held at the Langley Events Centre offered a chance for young athletes to show their basketball and leadership skills with a 3 on 3 format. It was also a great experience for some of the Basketball BC athletes to try out Wheelchair Basketball for the first time.

As a coach, it was a wonderful experience. Getting the opportunity to watch the skills of athletes shine and improve throughout the day. I was incredibly impressed with how easy it was for the more experienced players to take control and show leadership. As well as the developing players did amazing. They pushed hard, gave it all they had and best of all worked together. Being a coach, that’s the best thing you could ask for.

It was a fantastic day for all players. Everyone worked hard and played well together. It was a great environment to be in and it was amazing to watch. It was awesome when everyone came together as a team to help and encourage their fellow athletes and friends."
