Listen to Patte describe her journey to becoming an avid basketball fan, what worked and didn't work for her now High School graduate Zander, and how simple things like forming neighborhood friendships produced great results!
Her advice to parents?
Remember that each child has a personality of their own, and they are not always going to jump into a team and gel with others. If the team/ program is not a good fit at the school or club level, don't hesitate to find a better one!
