Well Sunday Derrick did some of his volunteer time with a neighboring Special olympic team. We don't have any winter sports in his club. But this one does.
They have what is called Basketball skills team. WHich is something I was pretty sure he would enjoy volunteering with if he could. Which he really did.
Wasn't sure how many they had now. But knew there main person was out for a while know doing cancer treatment. And some of the other volunteers have stepped up to make sure the kids still get to do this.
They had I believe close to 15 or so. He had lots of fun.
Close to the end, the person who runs it, came over and wanted to know if he would be interested in doing the 5 on 5 with the kids they have trouble getting enough kids so they can definitely have a team with the things like injury, illness and other things. So starting this next week he is going to the practice before to learn about that. So if they need an extra player he can help them.
He has always wanted to play basketball so he can know probably play with them.
