Looking back through my pictures made me realize I hardly got any pictures of Hadley playing basketball with her Crossings team. I have several videos but obviously spent all my time videoing it instead of taking pictures.
Hadley had a great season on both teams. For being one of the shortest she did a great job keeping up with the taller girls and had no problem getting the ball up to the basket. If she continues to shoot well develop her dribbling even more I really think she will end up being a pretty good ball player.
The leagues were so different this year. The Crossings team played through Santa Fe family center and was done through the Wayman Tisdale league. It is very structured and focuses the first couple years on developing skills and the knowledge of the game. Its definitely not as fast paced and exciting to watch but Hadley learned a lot and seemed to really like it! Next year they will start keeping score and begin the half court press. The YMCA league was more of a free for all which was a little harder for Hadley being the smallest. There were lots of fouls but it taught the girls to maneuver with the ball and make quick passes. It was definitely a fun league to watch with lots of cheering in all the games.
The last game of the YMCA season we took pictures before the game. Such a cute team with a couple pretty great coaches! We are so proud of all the hard work the girls put in and how much they developed over the season.
Hudson even dressed to match (unintentionally) and loved cheering his sister on....and eating candy.
Their "first" place medal! So excited to add to the collection.
