Join the CompetitionWestlee loves playing basketball because it’s fun. It keeps him active, and challenges him to always improve. I love the teamwork, the excitement of competition, and the feeling of making a great play. Basketball also teaches him discipline, confidence, and how to never give up even when the game gets tough.
The person who inspired me most throughout my basketball career has been my family. They have always encouraged me, supported me from the sidelines, and reminded me to keep working hard even when things get difficult. Their belief in me has motivated me to become a better player and a better person.
During one of Westlee's games his team was down players and he had already played 5 games that day and was completely exhausted but he never gave up on himself and kept encouraging his teammates to keep going to go on to win the championship. He's always encouraging others on and off the court to do their best no matter how tired they are.
