About:
Farmingdale, N.Y. – On Thursday, January 21st, the Farmingdale State men’s basketball team offered a basketball clinic in the Levittown School District. At the event, our players and coaches held two sessions for the 4th grade students at the East Broadway Elementary School, in collaboration with their physical education teacher, Diane Chapman.
The coaches ran drills with the students, as well as speaking with them about the importance of both sportsmanship and academics. The players coached the 100 students throughout the drills and gave them some pointers to help their game.
Rams head coach Brendan Twomey stated that “it was nice to see our guys giving back to the community. Our student-athletes enjoyed the event as much as the kids. We look forward to having another event like this in the future.”
