I am in the Future Stars program. It's when
girls sign up and have a basket ball player for a big sister. Every
Saturday we meet at the gym and practice. Every Thursday we go to their
games and we play at half time. My big sister's name s Sherece. Her
number is #22. She's on the JV team. It's a lot of fun to be in the
Future Stars Program. ...Megan, grade 4 I think this program is fun because we get a big sister. I also like it because we play basketball at half time. We also get candy. I love basketball. ...Alexis, grade 4 |

Tawny made the first goal. When we first started it was hard to dribill. I like basketball. I was passing the ball to Tawny to make a goal. The girls were trying to take the ball. ...Bernice |

Having a big sister is fun! Marlee is fun. She is my big sister. She tichis me how to play basketball and it is fun. She twisted her ankle at the basketball game. It wasn't fun. ...Kassidy, grade 2 I think it is fun to be a future star. This program is a basketball club, camp, thing. You get to have a big sister. My big sister's name is Alicia, no. 34. My coach is Coach Turk. We play games, races, and shoot hoops. We have a practice every Saturday and a game every Thursday except this week we have a game on Tuesday.

| In the Future Star Program you get a big sister. My big sister is Carmen Howard. She is a great basketball player! On every Saturday for four weeks you go to a basketball clinic. At the basketball clinic you learn a lot about basketball. At half time on the varsity game we get to play. Before the game starts and during half time we have to make a tunnel for the players. I am glad that I am in the Future Star Program! ...Janique, grade 4 |

At the Future Stars program we practice shooting hoops, dribling, passing, bounce passing and a lot of other fun stuff. But first of all we stretch so we don't pull a muscle or twist a muscle. I like to practice shooting hoops and bounce passing. It is really fun and you can learn a lot of new stuff and plus we meet every Saturday. We play during half time at the home game only. But everybody in it is having a really good time. ...Caitlin, grade 4 |

The fourth grade girls were given a great opportunity to learn about the game of basketball through the Future Stars Program this year. Not only do they show excitement for the game of basketball now that they have been part of this program, they also have a big sister in the school to look up to and watch play the game. These young players really are the FUTURE STARS of Onekama! ..Mrs. Bennett, teacher |
