PNBGC learns basketball skills from Robert Swain

Robert Swain, premier basketball coach and owner of Swain Basketball Academy, recently taught Pete Nance Boys & Girls Club members. 

Club members participated in a one-day camp learning dribbling drills, shooting techniques and passing drills. 

“Robert is a well-respected leader around many areas,” Stacy McClendon, PNBGC Director shared. “He provides wisdom, courage, discipline and guidance to the younger generation.”

During his visit, McClendon shared, “he showed our youth many ways of how to never give up, keep their heads above water and always stay positive.”

“My favorite quote that he shared with our youth was ‘own the moment,’ which in my mind means to never settle and take advantage of every opportunity.”
