An intramural program is teaching students skills on and off the court.

At Greater Clark County Schools, some elementary sports teams are changing it up, hosting intramural programs versus playing other schools. The change, which was aimed at helping avoid the spread of viruses between buildings, is showing another benefit.

“We don’t cut anybody. We don’t turn anybody away,” said Brent Rogers, Northaven Elementary girls’ basketball coach. “Some of them are first year players. Some of them are very experienced. This is giving them all the opportunity to develop skills and see if this is a sport that they want to continue later on.”
