The Seattle Storm Women's Professional Basketball Team will headline this year’s Group Health Community Practice on Wednesday, July 13 at the Tyee Educational Complex. The event, which takes place from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, is FREE and open to the public. It will mark the third consecutive year in which the Storm will hold an open practice at the Tyee Educational Complex.
Hosted by the City of SeaTac and Seattle Southside Regional Tourism Authority, the Community Practice is a fun event for kids and families to go behind the scenes at a Storm practice. Fans can watch the team and participate in some of the drills directed by the coaching staff. The event will feature meet-and-greets with Storm players and coaches, games and contests with prizes, an appearance from Doppler the mascot and a special performance by the Storm Dance Troupe.
All attendees will receive a pair of tickets to the September 11 game against Los Angeles, and the first 200 participants will go home with their choice of a free t-shirt or junior sized basketball courtesy of Group Health Cooperative.
“Storm community practices in SeaTac have been such a great way for the youth and families in our community to connect with the players and participate in healthy activities,” said Joseph Scorcio, SeaTac Acting City Manager. “It is an honor to have these extraordinary role models join us for the third year in a row. Hosting the event alongside Group Health and the Seattle Southside Regional Tourism Authority has been a great way to engage the community.”
A flyer for the event is posted on the city website and can also be viewed HERE.
