Morrison
Academy Taipei invited Coach Don to participate in their summer program
this year. Coach Don taught the kids how to make soap, candles, perfume,
and other fun activities.
We also held basketball classes for two weeks, having fun and learning new things about the sport.
Coach Shane
and Coach Don were asked to participate in basketball activities with
several students. A 3v3 tournament was the main attraction with the
Green Squad named as the winners with 3 wins in a row!
Quincy Davis III held a very special basketball event on October 7th, 2017 @ Long Men Junior High School. Davis visited the school via networking with the diligent parents, teachers, and friends within the school who really care about the development of their kids and their program.
Coach Don from Swish Academy was asked to join him with Mrs. Grace, and Mr. Philip, respectively.
A scrimmage between Long Men and Min Tsu Junior High schools was
scheduled, giving Davis the opportunity to watch, take notes and drop a
few gems for the kids to learn from and apply in their journey in the
sport of basketball.
Swish Academy would like to extend gratitude to Davis, Grace, (The
TYGA Program), Coach Meng and his players from Long Men, The coach from
Min Tsu and his players, Mr. Philip, and the many other people involved
behind the scenes! (There are also many other people involved that I am
unable to name do to me being unable to write their name in Chinese…
Again, Thank you!)
Coach Don attended a speech given by Quincy Davis III at Chihlee
Institute of Technology. Davis gave a very heartfelt message,
highlighting his many obstacles and sharing helpful tips on how he was
able to overcome them.
He touched on setting the right goals and making the most out of the
decisions you face everyday, including the importance of working
together to build a greater Taiwan while pursuing the dreams that
motivate and make us happy.
After speaking, several activities were played with the students with
autographed prizes given to the participants. Posing for photos with
the students brought the event to a close, leaving everyone in
attendance with a lot to think about.
