Bradley Beal Hosts Basketball Clinic at Hazelwood Southeast Middle School

St. Louis native and National Basketball Association (NBA) Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal will make a boys and girls smile this weekend. 

The NBA guard is leading a free basketball clinic at Hazelwood Southeast Middle School on Saturday, Aug. 24, from noon to 2 p.m. 

“We are excited to host this event,” said Chauncey Granger, principal at Southeast Middle School, in a statement. “This is a wonderful opportunity not only for our students, but for other children in the community as well. 

"We have enjoyed a long-standing partnership with the Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club and I am pleased that our school was selected to host this event.”

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater St. Louis, formally known as Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club, is sponsoring the event which is already full.

HSEMS will host 50 high school and 50 middle school students from North County during this weekend’s basketball clinic. Sign-ups for the clinic were completed in advance through the club.

“The event was so well-received that all available slots for the basketball clinic are full," Granger said. "However, we look forward to future opportunities that we can share with even more students and community members."
