ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Mrs. Valerie Aspinall has been coaching basketball for almost 20 years. She is certified in basketball coaching and has achieved a ‘specialist’ degree in Physical Education. She loves to coach and enjoys playing herself. Seeing students’ progress on the court and their enjoyment of the game is the best part for her. When players gain confidence in their abilities and learn new skills and techniques, those skills can be transferred to other sports and confidence in themselves.
