It's Quiet. . . Too Quiet.

Not much has been happening with the WBA lately, well make that absolutely nothing.

The regular season, post-season, and all-star weekends have all come and passed. This year will have no more 3 point competitions, walks in the snow to Ball Gym or division rivals battling it out on Sunday afternoons. No, this has all been fun, but now it seems I, and everyone else involved in the West Side Basketball Association will be spending most of their Sundays on homework, contrary to playing basketball.

I look back on this season however as being educational, fun and nothing short of successful. We went out and accomplished our goal from the beginning of the season which was to do work and make the playoffs. We did just that this past season, and if I may say so myself, we also had a fun time doing it.

There will be a lot of memories that I can keep with me from this past season, but I will definitely be looking forward to the future with my head up, because next year brings yet another season in the WBA.

All-Star Weekend

This Sunday in Ball Gymnasium, the West Side Basketball Association will be hosting their annual “All-Star Weekend.” Starting somewhere around 1pm, there will be a slam dunk contest, a 3-pt shooting competition, and will be followed shortly after by the Red Division vs. Blue Division All-Star Game featuring the best players both leagues have to offer, as voted by their teammates.

I will be doing the announcing for all the events, and I must admit I am very excited and proud to have been chosen for this small honor.

I will also be providing a variety of music suitable to the surroundings, including oldies, hip hop, rock, etcetera. Basically, not only and I providing commentary during the game, I will also be playing the DJ role to entertain fans as well.

If you have nothing better to do this Sunday afternoon besides waiting for the Ball State Cardinals Women’s Basketball team to play in the big dance, then come out and have an enjoyable afternoon watching some of your neighbors, perhaps, play in the West Side Basketball Association’s All-Star Weekend.
