Testimonials:"Participating in the youth basketball program at
Ken-Rock Community Center reinforced the value of hard work and cooperation that have
influenced me throughout my life."-Todd BrannanHead Basketball CoachJefferson High School
"Being involved at Ken-Rock in team activities as a kid really enhanced my love of sports, which is still strong today. More importantly, playing team sports as a child provides an early life experience in getting along with others and interacting in a group with various personalities. This becomes even more important in adult life and the work environment. Lastly, the friendly competition is a positive thing to carry forward in
life. Nothing wrong with wanting to win, just make sure to learn how to do it with dignity and class." -Dave Stone
Hamilton Sundstrand
"I liked playing at Ken-Rock because there were a lot of nice kids on my team. I made some new friends & my coaches were really nice. I got to play all the positions & find out which
ones I am best at. It was nice to hear people cheering for me."-Mason G.
