This past winter, the GSP Tunis Basketball Program had a successful season of training participants for life, both on and off the court. Sessions focused on the physical and mental development of youth athletes to grow their interest in basketball alongside of new skills.
The program was initially planned for a 7-week run, which successfully saw 86 participants grow in their skills. The success and excitement of those 7 weeks prompted the GSP Tunis staff to extend the season an additional 10 weeks. This group of young athletes is coached by the GSP Tunis full-time staff as well as an invaluable team of 7 local coaches.
“The success of the program was evident in how many parents were asking us to continue after the initial 7 weeks. We often hear how pleased they are with the organization, the fun atmosphere, and the character-building elements of the program. We believe these elements bring the participants back and encourage them to tell their friends.” – GSP Tunis Representative, Jared Morgan
The staff was encouraged by positive improvements in the skills of the players. Noticeable progress came from drills focusing on shooting and spacing. The GSP Tunis team looks forward to building on these skills as well as seeing young athletes enjoy the game of basketball in future camps and programs. Summer Basketball Camp kicks off on Monday in Tunis and the GSP team looks forward to seeing many familiar faces!
