Wall Ball promises action-packed fun


By Kenny Ingham and Stephen Doak

We have written a story about Enrichment Academy Wall Ball. We interviewed Christian Garibay, a player, and Mr. Brooks, one of the coaches. Here are the responses we heard:


Q1: Why do you like wall ball?
A: “I get to hang with friends.” (Christian)
“It’s a game for everyone and all are welcome.” (Mr. Brooks)
Q2: What makes a good player?
A: “If someone is fast enough to hit the ball they're good.” (Christian)
“A person who can think on their feet and isn’t afraid to try.” (Mr. Brooks)
Q3: Who are some of the star players?
A: “Can’t remember.” (Christian)
“Diego Lopez, Guillermo Lopez and Omar Guerro." (Mr. Brooks)
Q4: Do you like the coach/Do you like coaching?
A: “He’s nice and helps us get better.” (Christian)
“I love it with all my heart and I also play.” (Mr. Brooks)
Q5: Is wall ball your favorite sport?
“It’s one of them.” (Christian)
“It’s my favorite that’s not on TV but truly it’s tennis.” (Mr. Brooks)
Mr. Brooks has been coaching wall ball for seven years and the other coach, Mr. Larios, has been coaching for three years. There you go...a few words from a player and a coach. Maybe you will be playing wall ball too.
