Summer boys program
According to Paul Savramis, training has not taken a backseat due to the coronavirus. The boys summer programs are strong, with a few already having taken place and others scheduled for late in August. Ranging from $140-$395, the Rising Stars boys summer programs are an excellent opportunity for kids to get out on the court.
Girls teams
Paul Savramis says the boys are not the only ones that have gotten back to the court. The girls skills academy took place between July 27 and July 30 at Long Beach High School and catered to our student athletes in the 3rd through 9th grade. Starting on August 10, the girls summer camp at St. Paul’s recreation complex will offer further opportunities for girls in the same grades.
Virtual connections
While Rising Stars has gotten back on the court, there are still plenty of virtual connections that have allowed our self-isolating families to communicate. In May, RSYF partnered with Hofstra University, where student athletes were excited to speak with Kevin Dexter and other broadcasters about interviews with some of the sport’s greatest players.
Fun run
Many of our families, including our coaches, have taken to running during the pandemic. Coach Lauren and her fiancé, along with many of our student-athletes and their parents, chose to finish their rise up 5.0 5K challenge.
