Los Angeles, CA, WPH Press, 8/26/24
JR WPH Coach and WPH social media influencer Ryan “Waddy Pup” Watkins introduced a group of thirty youngsters between the ages of four to eight years old to handball at the LAAC Summer Camp in July. Coach Watkins split the youngsters into two groups of fifteen, working on throwing the ball with both hands, hitting the ball off drop feeds, and paired the players into groups of two to play two-bounce.
“The kids learned the fundamentals of the numerous sports offered at the LAAC Summer Camp,” barked the Pup. “After watching a few of us play during their lunch break, many kids expressed interest in giving handball a try. We offered to give them lessons and they incorporated handball into the last week of the summer camp.”
Thank you to the Waddy Pup for inspiring the next generation of players at the LAAC.
