Two NBS Nelson Giants strode into town last Sunday to spend time with Golden Bay’s young basketballers.

Giants’ squad members Tom Ingham and Alex McNaught travelled over the Hill for two days of coaching, starting with a “drop-in hoops” session on Sunday afternoon and continuing on Monday morning with skills and drills training.

The annual Giants’ visit to the Bay is part of the team’s NBS and ITM sponsorship arrangement and is organised under the Hoops in Schools programme.

Sunday’s action took place outside at the Rec Park Centre where Tom and Alex arranged 3x3 games on a small size court for a dozen or so players, including one from Motueka.

As well as having fun, players also had the opportunity to win one of Alex’s old Giants and NZ Breakers shirts by scoring a three-pointer – a shot made from outside the arc marked out approximately seven metres from the hoop. Eleven-year-old Jada Byrne was one of those who bagged a prize, impressing with her one-handed shooting technique.

The following morning, the two Giants ran the skills and drills sessions for around 20 enthusiasts who practiced ball-handling techniques, and took part in fun-filled exercises such as “golden child” and “pirates”.

At the end of the morning’s first high-tempo session, Tom
