This is one of many events and fundraisers to help promote youth basketball in the community fueled by the supporters of what Twinfield varsity basketball coaches Kris Bador and Jack Whalen are building in Marshfield.

Bador, Whalen, and their staffs will once again be running their Twinfield-Cabot Basketball Camp from August 4 -7.
