Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Oliver has always faced challenges on the basketball court as he is a late July birthday and has always played against kids who are 6-18 months older than him. This has forced him to develop skills and play with a high basketball IQ. Now he is catching and passing the older kids physically, having grown 6 inches in the past year.
