July 17-23, 2003 mixpicks 76ers Summer Hoops Tour
Children driving you up the wall this summer? Have no fear, the Eighth Annual 76ers Summer Hoops Tour is touching down at playgrounds and recreation centers all over the tri-state area. When? Now, and continuing until the end of summer. Nope, it’s not Allen Iverson or even Aaron McKie dishing the dirt on how to throw up an alley-oop or sneak off a behind-the-back, no-look pass; it’s former 76ers All-Star World B. Free who’ll host the series of annual clinics alongside another former Sixer Ollie Johnson and front office staffers like TV play-by-play man Marc Zumoff, public address announcer Matt Cord and the always exciting voice of the Sixers radio network, Tom McGinnis. Sure the glitzy big-name players are not taking part but clinic chief World B. Free was no slouch in his b-ballin’ heyday; he still ranks 49th on the NBA’s top scoring list. The tour slam dunks its way from Pottstown and the Jersey Shore to Philly and Allentown, with a lesson in the fundamentals and a few NBA secrets alike. With no pre-registration necessary, the clinics run a full 90 minutes and are free to children of all ages. Perhaps The Answer himself will make it to one of the sessions for a lil’ practice; come on, even the team mascot Hip-Hop will be in the house! Wink, wink. 76ers Summer Hoops Tour, through August 7, various dates and times, free, 215-339-7666, www.nba.com/sixers/community/03summer_hoops_tour.html.
