BASKETBALL will be the focus of a fun day on Teesside this month.

Hoop Dreams, a Middlesbrough-based social inclusion project, is holding the primary school event at Eston Sports Academy, on Wednesday, December 14, at 10am.

The aim is to introduce young people to basketball.

There will be a series of coaching sessions and youngsters will have the opportunity to hone their skills under the watchful eye of Teesside's basketball team, the TVLL Teesside Mohawks.
