Basketball Time Changes

Sundays are a very busy day for our athletes. With basketball, gymnastics and hockey, it became very evident we needed to do a better job at spreading out practice times. Because gymnastics and hockey times are fixed, it makes more sense to move basketball skills/level 1 team to a 1:00 start time. Skills will continue to be approximately 45-60 min long and the team will practice until 2:30. The level 2 team will continue to practice from 5:00 to 6:30. I apologize if this creates problems for any… Continue

Great Start to Bowling!

Thanks to everyone for making our first day of Bowling a HUGE success. I hope everyone enjoyed the new location and had a lot of fun. Attention Parents: Middleton Sport Bowl asks that we try to park in the old Walgreens lot on days when there is a Badger day game (they run a bus to the game so the parking is real tight). Thanks so much and I will see everyone next Saturday. Don Continue
