No matter how big Tamara
James made it in basketball -- leading South
Broward High School to three consecutive girls
basketball state titles, forging an All-American
career at the University of Miami and getting
drafted No. 8 overall in the 2006 WNBA draft,
James has always made time for the neighborhood
children.
On Sept. 13, James will return to the Dr. Martin Luther
King Community Center in Hollywood, where she played
pickup games as a rising prep star, for the third
annual Tamara James Fun Day and Youth Basketball
Clinic.
James, with an assist from University of Miami Womens
Basketball head coach Katie Meier, will lead elementary
and middle school-age children through drills from
9-12.
There will be free food and drinks and giveaway for the
kids. Meier and her coaching staff will then conduct a
coach's clinic from 1-2.
For more information contact MLK Center Coordinator
Richard Walker at 954-921-3412.
