This past week was an absolute joy! Myself and Coach Renata were blessed to partner with Coach Rafi of Skillz Basketball NI. From the kids excitement and overall responses, we couldn’t have run a better camp together. A huge shout out to Coach Rafi, an incredible coach, professional, and person; and Sarah, Coach Rafi’s wife, for all of the admin work behind the scenes, at camp, and for the amazing photography and extra support throughout.
