As part of its efforts to develop basketball in schools, Grenville Schools will host the first edition of community basketball drills in conjunction with Dynaspro Sports Academy and Lagos State Basketball Association at their GRA Ikeja School sports ground from May 17 to 20.

The four-day clinic will include strategic shooting skills, ball handling, passing skills and game formation/defensive skills.

According to the school principal, Imade Josephine, “Our involvement in sports development in Nigeria was born out of our genuine desire to create total education; a global child is the one given all the basic tools to compete with his/her counterpart across the globe and sports is vital to this.

“Students love basketball because it improves their agility and mental awareness. Grenville is highly passionate about sports development and hence our involvement.”

She encouraged willing students from other schools to participate in the clinic as it is open to all schools and students from age 4 to 17.

Confirming their participation in the clinic, the head technical to Lagos State Basketball Association, Gbade Olatona, thanked Grenville Schools for their willingness, dedication and support for grassroots sports development in Lagos State.
