Here at the CLC we now have a basketball club on Saturdays. This picture is actually not from the club, its just a pick-up game but it gives a general idea of what it looks like. There are a few differences between how Moroccans and Americans play basketball. One is that Moroccans don't check the ball after a stoppage, they just go. It is less physical and more fouls are called. Traveling is also called a bit differently. Despite the differences we're having a great time teaching people a few things and learning something as well.
We are 17 American students experiencing life in Moroccan host families, while learning Arabic and participating in community service projects.
