West Texas Thunder Basketball Team

We didn’t win the tournament this past weekend but our team played awesome. We were missing several players including 2 of our starters that were out for various reasons and had to take a guest player with us and then another starter twisted his ankle in the first game. The other 5 players had to play the rest of the games without any breaks and two of our games were back to back, but they all brought their A game and played like a team that had been together for years , they were all tired but fought until the end and only lost by a few points. My son Josh played amazing and I couldn’t be prouder of him, his leg cramped up in the last game and he fell on it but he pushed through and played the 2nd half of the game in pain. He averaged 18 points a game and had alot of assists. Shoutout to his brothers Jayson Snodgrass and Jordan Snodgrass for believing in him and volunteering to be his coaches for this summer. Shoutout to our great friends Renee Hesbrook Rodgers and Scott Rodgers for letting us all crash at their house all weekend and for cooking us delicious meals and being big supporters of our team.

West Texas Thunder Traveling Basketball Team, organized by Janie Hamilton Hi, my name is Janie Hamilton and I am fundraising for my son’s traveling… Janie Hamilton needs your support for West Texas Thunder Traveling Basketball Team

Shout out to Austin Inman for designing our logo!

Recently my son’s travel basketball coach announced that he would not be coaching anymore due to job relocation and the players were devastated. We were also saddened to the hear the news because we love these kiddos and are very close to many of them, so we decided to start a new team. We didn’t know how we were going to pull this off or who would coach but by the grace of God it is all coming together. My older boys; Jayson and Jordan have volunteered to coach, they are doing great and are really enjoying hanging out with these young men. I think that they will have a positive impact on these young athletes, and are very excited to be coaching. Please look for our GoFundMe link coming soon.🏀
