Life lessons from basketball, Phil Ford's basketball workshop
Posted May 24, 2018
Phil Ford’s workshop was incredible. The proceeds from the event and Ford’s book, “The Kid Who Couldn’t Dunk,” went to Ford’s Foundation. The foundation fights childhood obesity. Ford took time with each child instructing them on the mechanics of shooting and basic ball handling. He also dropped several pearls of wisdom on not only the youth but on us old folk too.
