District Attorney Sam
Sutter's Office held the first of a series of basketball clinics for
youth ages 7 through 12 on November 8, 2008 with Volunteer Coordinator
Brian Rose and former
NBA player Ernie DiGregorio.
Over 100 kids showed up at the
Spencer Borden
Elementary School for the morning event. Additional clinics will be
held starting on November 15th at the
Bank Street Armory. "This is a great way for boys and girls to learn
some of the basics of the game," commented Rose. "If kids are going to
be more active, they have to develop some skills and confidence with
team sports. This series of clinics is designed to introduce kids to
tennis, basketball and baseball," he added. Two baseball clinics will be
held on April 18th and 25, 2009, at locations to be announced with
former Red Sox pitcher Rose. Registration for the three clinics can be
picked-up at the DA's Fall River office at 38 Rock Street, Community
Development Recreation at 72 Bank Street, or at the Boys' and Girls
Club' at 803 Bedford Street, Fall River.
