Recreation programmer Colleen Huskisson (second from right) practises with participants in a unique women’s basketball program through North Vancouver Recreation and Culture Commission. The recreational, non-competitive beginner’s basketball program for women features an hour of instruction and drills followed by a scrimmage (optional).
It is suited to women who have never played basketball before and those who have some experience.
The focus is on fun and fitness, as well as skill development. The next session runs Mondays April 3-June 26, 8:30-10 p.m. at Mickey McDougall Gym in North Vancouver. Cost: $66 for the full session, or $7 drop-in (pay drop-in at Harry Jerome Community Centre front desk).
