In this week’s edition of Wizards Digital’s interview series with members of the Wizards’ business staff, Shannon Clancy, Wizards Senior Manager of Youth Basketball, discussed his career path, the importance of keeping basketball fun for the young fanbase and tips for sharpening skills without access to a court.
Q: To start off, can you talk a little about your career path and what your role is with Monumental? How did you land an opportunity with the Wizards?
Our job is to create new fans through youth basketball. Research has shown that most people begin to identify with a certain team or player between the ages of 6 and 14 – so most of our programming is focused on that age group.
