When Walton County Boys & Girls Clubs basketball team was in need of a coach, Mrs. Sheila Staebell was eager to offer up her skills and time to Club youth.
Staebell joins youth twice a week to work on basketball fundamentals.
“Her work is helping our youth prepare for their March season,” WCBGC Club Director, Lynn E. Hill shared. “Our basketball team falls under the all-stars program and our members are excited to be able to play another season.”
Club member Ty Burce shared he’s been enjoying learning new basketball techniques.
“It’s been fun being on the team,” he said. “We all enjoy each other, and I am getting better at my lay ups.”
For Staebell working with the Club youth has been rewarding.
“It’s so fun to work with the youth on their skills and see how the older members join in to assist younger members in their growth,” she shared. “I’m glad I get to volunteer my time here.”
Walton County Boys & Girls Clubs All-Star program is a way for the Club members to participate in an organized sport.
“Members who may not be able to play for a recreation league or school team can rest assured knowing that there is a spot for them on The Walton County Boys & Girls Club Basketball Team,” Hill shared. “We’re so grateful to Mrs. Shelia for giving her time and talents to our Club youth.”
