Welcome Windjammer Basketball families!  We are thrilled to introduce the 10,000 Shot Challenge for our players this summer in honor of Tom Stammen.  From June 1 to September 15th, participants who successfully  complete over 10,000 shots will receive a special commemorative t-shirt and be recognized at halftime of a varsity basketball game next season, as a way to memorialize Coach Stammen’s dedication and passion for the game. Here’s how the challenge works:  Starting on June 1 and running through September 15th, each player will track their shots taken during this time period.  We will provide a designated place where players can submit their weekly shot totals.  At the end of each month, the shot numbers will be locked to prevent any changes, ensuring the accuracy of the data. Parents, please enter shot totals here!

But that’s not all!  We are also looking for t-shirt sponsors and prizes to be drawn for those who completed the challenge.  If you or your business would like to be a sponsor for the t-shirts or donate prizes for our hard-working players, please reach out to us.  Your support will help motivate our players and make this challenge even more rewarding.

The goal of the challenge is for players to take 10,000 game-speed shots over the summer.  Parents can utilize this challenge to motivate their child to step away from screens and get outside to play basketball.  Here are the rules:  Shoot baskets and record the total number of shots taken each day.  Shots should be game-speed shots from various areas of the court, and the maximum number of shots that can be recorded in a day is 500.  To help players get started, we have outlined a suggested 200-shot workout routine:

We encourage all players to take on this challenge, improve their skills, and have fun this summer.  Let’s see who and join the 10,000 Shot Club and carry on Coach Stammen’s passion for basketball.  Thank you to our sponsors and supporters for making this challenge possible!
