How little BALLERS came to be…
We are Chad & Kim Celaire, parents of a toddler & preschooler!
Our family loves the outdoors, recreation & activities of all sorts! Our love for these things are what led to us starting Bee2gether Bikes back in 2007 (a bicycle rental business with locations at The Forks, Assiniboine Park, and Birds Hill Park) and Bee2gether Excursions back in 2009 (a vintage camper rental business).
Both Kim & I grew up enjoying the sport of basketball & had wanted to share this passion for it with our children.
Thus we came up with this vision for the grassroots early childhood developmental basketball program for kids which we call little BALLERS. After much planning research & using our own children as test subjects we launched little BALLERS in the fall of 2022 at Balmoral Hall & Soul Sanctuary/Sept.2022-Nov.2022 with a total of 70 registrants.
We were so excited to see our vision come to life with these ‘ little ones’ learning & developing the love for basketball & all the meantime having fun!
Basketball is a great sport for kids because it is fun, simple and an inexpensive game that builds social skills through teamwork.
