Play keeps us energized, builds confidence and teaches resilience, accountability and discipline. 🏀💪 No one knows that better than Coach AK @1coachak, who grew up playing Tempe Parks & Recreation basketball and has come full circle to coach and assist with our youth sports programs for the next generation. This week, we’re celebrating #ThePowerOf Play! 🎉 Whether you’re just getting started or looking to stay active, there’s a program for every age, stage and ability. 📅 Fall program registration opens August 10 for Tempe residents and August 17 for the general public.
