Hello to all of our “Play Smarter” Students and Parents
We are wishing your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Christmas weekend, Saturday, December 24 and Sunday, December 25
We have decided to close down for both of these very special days, We want to let our students and parents have a break so they do not need to break up their Christmas Holliday at all three of our class locations. We want our students to spend these two very special holiday with their families and friends.
Sunday, New Year Day, January 1st, We will close down our San Gabriel Academy class only on New Year’s Day but both of our Saturday classes will still be open for classes as usual.
- Saturday and Sunday, December 24 and 25 Christmas weekend, all classes will be closed.
- Saturday, December 31st both of our Saturday classes will be open as usual.
- Sunday, on New Year’s Day at: San Gabriel Academy we will be closed on this day, See you next weekend at all of our classes,
Have a great Holiday Vacation
From All of Our Play Smarter Basketball Coaching Staff
Sometimes it feels like our children are speaking a different language. As parents, we spend much of our days around adults and as such we are used to communicating in a certain way. When we come home to our children we have to switch gears, which can be hard. If it’s difficult to understand your children, or they you, don’t let that discourage you. Communication with your kids is so important for their development. Don’t worry; it’s not a different language you two are speaking, just a different perspective.

Hello parents and students of our “Play Smarter Basketball Classes”. Our program staff is very proud of the development of the students in our three classes. We realize that it may be hard for mom or dad to always see your child’s progress or improvement like our staff can see but we are very proud of many of our kid’s growth and development.
I enrolled my 7th grade son last summer into the Play Smarter Basketball program based upon recommendations from some of my basketball coach friends. I am very pleased with the progress that my son has shown since he’s started going to the Saturday classes. He learns all kinds of basketball skills and techniques including handling the basketball, passing, shooting, court awareness, game strategies, and more. He has a great time and gets to play with other kids of varying sizes, ages, and skill levels. He looks forward to practicing and doesn’t even complain about getting up early on Saturday mornings.
In addition to having fun though, this basketball program will help prepare my son to play more serious high school basketball in another year or two if he is interested at that time. Coach Marquis and his assistant coaches all provide quality instruction and the kids have a great day. Coach Marquis even uses prizes to motivate the young basketball players to do well. In short, you can’t go wrong in signing up your kids with Play Smarter Basketball.
