Every year around the same time (Rob’s birthday) the Harlem Globetrotters some to town. Every year Rob mentions he wants to go. Last year we had the opportunity to go to a couple games and it was tons of fun. The show is energetic, comedic and pure family fun.
Besides being athletes and goofs they are also stand-up members of society, constantly giving back to communities in need. The CHEER program was designed the program with assistance from the U.S. Department of Education. While there are several different character traits emphasized by various programs across the country, the Globetrotters’ program focuses on Cooperation, Healthy mind & body, Effort, Enthusiasm, and Responsibility.
The program targets 6-12 year-old students and involves Globetrotter players incorporating their signature ball handling skills with a “C.H.E.E.R.”™ basketball. The basketball includes each of the character traits printed on the outside of the ball and is used as a key tool during the presentation to each school. Globetrotter players encourage students to match their actions with those five character traits in all their life experiences with parents, teachers and one another.
