Anderson: 5th Grade Basketball

 Anderson played on 4 basketball teams during his 5th Grade year. It was a lot of basketball, but we always love to watch him play and he improved so much.

He played on a Fall & Winter version of the TN Travelers. I have very, very few pics, but they were the winners of the Jingle Jam tournament in December and a few other tournaments.

He played on a WBBL team with some kids from Hardin Valley. They did really well & won the league. 

He was fouled while going up for a lay-up and landed really hard on his back, which resulted in an ambulance ride and late night at Children's. Brandon had to wake Max up anddrive to pick us up at 2am. We obviously stopped for milkshakes on the way home.

He played on a rec league in Maryville with a few friends and they won the league!

He played 23 games in the month of January.
I do love watching him play.

Travelers won another tournament-he played 5 games on that day!

 

WBBL Champions! 

 Another tournament win!

CBFO Champions!

First "Spring" AAU tournament-they ended up in 2nd place, but Anderson played awesome.
SO many Gatlinburg tournaments.

Funny things Max said:


You know how birds can stand on electrical wires without getting hurt? I wish we could do that. 


At night sometimes I hit Anderson's head because I am trying to feel for your bun to see if it is you.
