On a cold Saturday morning in January, parents and children arrived at the SunUte Community Center ready to compete in the annual youth basketball league. SunUte Community Center’s 2025 youth basketball season got off to a great start on Saturday, Jan. 17 thanks in part to the parents volunteering their time and skills to the youth, as well as the SunUte staff operating the facility with open communication, quick service and friendly smiles! The event brings young athletes, parents and coaches together on the courts each year to teach youth the game of basketball and the skills needed to compete with sportsman like conduct.
