2019 League of Champions Basketball

The League of Champions is an adaptive basketball program for individuals with physical and intellectual challenges. The League recommends that no score be kept during games. The players wear the same uniforms, shoulder patches and safety equipment as other players. One of the benefits of having a League of Champions is that it encourages the use of "buddies" for the players.  The buddies assist the participants on the field, but whenever possible, encourage them to bat and make plays themselves.  However, the buddy is always nearby to help when needed.

A buddy players may also sign up to play.  These are players that will participate as well as help the athletes with physical and intellectual challenges.

Foxtrot and Swing 
In this class, students will learn the fun and jazzy Foxtrot and Single Swing. The Foxtrot is a smooth, progressive dance that is often danced to big band music.

These two styles are very useful styles to know as they can be danced at most any dance event including weddings, on cruises or at just about any event where a band is playing

No partner is required. It’s casual dress (workout clothes are fine).  Participants will want to consider wearing shoes that will not stick to the floor.
