(Courtesy of MVP) Hoping you and your family are safe and well. Youth basketball is alive and swishing! On Sunday May 3, MVP Basketball Camps hosted the Boys 2020 All Stars Zoom Hot Shot Challenge. The day featured All Stars as selected by their respective coaches from yeshivas throughout the New York/New Jersey Metro Area.
The unique and interactive event featured players shooting hoops in their backyards and driveway baskets in Monsey, Brooklyn, Highland Park, North Woodmere, Deal, West Hempstead, Jamaica Estates, Teaneck, Cedarhurst, New Rochelle, New Milford, Woodmere, White Plains, Englewood, Great Neck, Plainview, Allenhurst, Scarsdale and Oceanside. Throughout the day, the All Stars, from grades six through high school competed in the Hot Shot Challenge while they also interacted with their friends from other schools.
Congratulations to all the All Stars as well as to the MVP All Star Champions: sixth grade Nathan Neufeld, Yeshivat He’Atid; seventh grade Joshua Chabbot, Magen David Yeshiva; eighth grade Isaac Cooper, Yeshivah of Flatbush; high school Akiva Schanzer, SAR Academy. Special thanks to all the parents and family members who served not only as cheerleaders but as camerapersons to keep the Zoom focus on their sons. Based on the feedback, it was a positive slam dunk experience for all.
Following the momentum of the Boys All Star Challenge, there is another spark on the horizon. On Sunday, May 10, MVP will once again sponsor the annual Yeshiva League Girls Basketball All Star Day. This year…on Zoom!
For the past 11 years, MVP All Star Day has been a highlight for girl basketball players from all Yeshiva Leagues throughout the New York and New Jersey Metro area. The players, selected by their respective coaches, participate in five All Star games: sixth, seventh and eighth grades, high school junior varsity and high school varsity.
This year, due to the current situation, MVP will host an innovative Girls All Star Day Competition featuring the 2020 All Stars (by grade) who have been invited to participate in a Live Hot Shot Challenge via Zoom.
