Hey Rockford ballers, get hyped! There's gonna be a sick basketball event happening soon, and it's totally free! On Saturday, August 10, from 10 in the a.m. to 1 in the p.m., the downtown YMCA is throwing a youth basketball clinic with AJ and Ambranette Storr, who are like, the coolest hoop stars ever! If you're into basketball, you don't wanna miss this!
AJ's Hoops Journey from Rockford to the Big Time
So, AJ Storr is basically a basketball legend. He started playing right here in Rockford at Rockford Lutheran, but then balled his way to Kankakee, Vegas, and even an Arizona prep school. After that, he hit the college courts at St. John’s and Wisconsin, and guess what? He's gonna be playing for Kansas next year! That's crazy, right? But the best part is, he still remembers his roots. He says, "I want to give back to the place that gave me my love for the game and help the kids here dream big."
Ambranette Storr Brings the Heat Too
And let's not forget AJ's sis, Ambranette. She's a total hoops boss in her own right. Together, these two are like the dynamic duo of basketball, coming back to Rockford to spread the love for the game.
Why You Gotta Be There
- It's Free: Uh, hello? Free basketball lessons from actual stars? Yes, please!
- Pro Tips: They've played with the big dogs, so you know they've got some sweet moves to share.
- Local Heroes: It's so cool to hang with athletes who started out playing in our very own town and made it big.
So, save the date, August 10, and get ready to dribble, shoot, and score with AJ and Ambranette Storr at the downtown YMCA. It's gonna be lit!
