IMPD to host ‘Play Like a Girl’ basketball clinic
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department is hosting a clinic where kids can “Play Like a Girl.” Organizers say that’s the challenge and the name of the basketball clinic focused on girls.
The event is on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the JTV Hill Center at 1806 Columbia Avenue.
WNBA star Rushia Brown and IMPD leaders will lead a discussion on confidence. Then, a basketball skills and drills clinic will be followed by a game.
In a Facebook post, IMPD said, “It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn new skills, meet new friends, and have a blast!”
The event is free for girls ages 7 to 18 and snacks will be served. Anyone interested in attending must be registered. Learn more and sign up online, here.
Rushia Brown said she founded Team PASSION in 2024 with a desire to impact young ladies playing the sport that saved her positively. She has since assembled a staff of women who have all played at the collegiate and professional levels to lead its student-athletes.
