Basketball is a very popular sport at West Rolleston Primary School. Our aim is to increase participation within our school, extend our capable players and strive to win our zone competition. The purpose of this letter is to determine interest - more details and payment information will follow.
In order to provide our learners with as many opportunities as possible, I would love some people to help coach/manage a team or run/support skills session. I can support you if basketball is new to you.
