130 kids join free RRD basketball clinic in Toril

More than 100 boys and girls took part in the 2008 Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte Basketball Clinic, held over the weekend, at the Brgy.Toril gym.

The 130 participants were taught of the basics of the sport like the proper way to dribble, pass and shoot the ball by former PBA cager Cadel Mosqueda and long-time clinician Alberto Malinao.

Aside from the ball handling skills, the participants learned of the basic drills and exercises to prepare them before the game.

“We are doing this for the kids to have a venue to exhaust their energies this summer,” said City Sports Coordinator Christopher “Bong” Go.

More than 4,000 boys and girls have benefitted from the free clinic.
