According to Kim Tuchek, St Francis Xavier CYO athletic director, "After designing a complete basketball program for children grades first through third, Tina then instructed our "Young Navigators" with some age-based skills and drills and emphasized the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship throughout. Tina's experience of the game, tremendous spirit and enjoyment in teaching children led to the success of this program. The children definitely enjoyed the camp and the parents were equally overwhelmed and delighted with Tina and her program."
