Twice a week during the summer, 2002 National Womens Basketball Association star Tamara Moore advances the skills of 10 to 15 girls in one-hour basketball summer clinics. Beyond dribbling and passing, the new MTS coach is interested in college readiness. Young girls need to learn the people and social skills, and have the personal development to get into college and build a career, she said.<\/p>\n
The basketball season begins on November 16, and runs for 26 games. Moore\u2019s goal is to \ufb01nd 25 to 30 students for the MTS junior varsity and varsity teams. Her message to parents is to get their daughters in a program that encourages discipline, hard work and dedication. Moore learned from her own experience how to be in the forefront of women\u2019s athletics, and the hard work required to receive college scholarships. She played basketball for Minneapolis North in 1998 and was crowned \u201cMiss Basketball.\u201d After graduation, it was on to the University of Wisconsin, before Moore was chosen as a \ufb01rst round draft pick for the NWBA Miami Sol in 2002.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
