B-ball in Kosova


I started playing basketball in a city called Prishtina and it is really fun. I play on a team called “Vertikal”. The gym floor is in bad shape so it is hard to dribble, but I am getting used to it. I also have a friend called Butrant but they call him Boot for short. The head coach is Mark but usually somebody else coaches me. I haven’t had a game yet but I know I will get a uniform. I practice for two hours on Saturday, first with kids my age and then with kids a year older than me. We do drills then we scrimmage. Afterwards we go to a bakery near the gym but sometimes we go before. --Dan

Dear Daniel
I think it is brilliant that you are playing basketball, "Big Blue"certainly is in great need of some good players.
Love from Lloyd and Maria.

How is the season going Daniel? We could have used you on North Pointe's team this year. But your buddy Jeffrey did a good job of taking your spot. Hope you have a great Christmas...

Daniel- how is basketball going? Have you had a game yet? I'm glad you are getting to play the game you love. Jacob made the 6th grade team at Conner, he was pretty excited. He and Britt are both busy with basketball here. And our poor UK Wildcats are having a terrible start this year . . . so you aren't missing much there!! Keep practicing!!
