The Los Angeles D-Fenders, in conjunction with the Los Angeles Lakers, Time Warner Cable and FSN WEST are hosting a series of eight CourtStars youth basketball clinics. Thus far clinics have been held at Branford, 109th Street, Highland Park and Chatsworth Recreation Centers. These are only half of the eight Los Angeles City Department of Recreation and Parks Recreation Center locations that recently received new outdoor basketball courts courtesy of FSN WEST and FSN PRIME TICKET.

The FSN WEST/Lakers Youth Foundation CourtStars youth basketball clinics emphasize the tenets of teamwork, leadership and education. Under the guidance of Lakers Clinicians and Lakers and D-Fenders players, participants sharpen individual skill sets, perform drills with teammates and, eventually, apply what is learned during a group scrimmage.

If your community group or organization would like to get a chance to meet the Los Angeles D-Fenders, contact the Community Relations Department at (310) 426-2231.
