Lafayette, LA – Get ready for some slam dunk fun! The Lafayette Parks, Arts, Recreation, and Culture Department (PARC) and the New Orleans Pelicans are teaming up to bring a fantastic, free youth basketball clinic to Lafayette. The Louisiana Ragin’ Cajun Women’s Basketball team will be there too, assisting off-the court-personnel conduct drills, fun, and games, with youngsters from Lafayette Parish during the event.
Just more than a year ago in October 2022, PARC and the Pelicans formed a partnership, bringing the Jr. Pelicans League to Lafayette. This free clinic is one of the many thrilling perks that came to life through this affiliation with the NBA team.
The clinic is open to boys and girls ages 5-17 and will be held on Monday, November 20 at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center (309 Cora St.) beginning at 5:30 p.m.
Kids attending the clinic will have an opportunity to register for the 2024 basketball season starting on January 6, 2024. The registration fee is $35 and the league is open to boys and girls ages 5-17.
