    Curtis Johnson We are deeply saddened to announce the death of Curtis Johnson, a great friend of the DFAC family. We are all shocked at the sudden passing of Curtis during the Holiday break.

    Curtis had developed many great relationships in the many years as a volunteer coach in the DFAC program. He was a great asset to our organization and a positive role model to our youth. Curtis had coached teams for DFAC for many years and was a very popular and well respected coach.

    Curtis had developed many great friendships with other coaches and parents and will certainly be missed. Curtis had coached a great number of kids through the years, all who had the benefit of his leadership and instruction. Family members include Heidi, Blake (Age 11) and Lauren (Age 15).

    No Food Or Drink In The Gyms
    Coaches please remind all your players that No Food or Drinks are allowed in the gyms during games.  Water is OK.  Please ask your players to pick up all garbage, water bottles, ect. left in the bench area and the bleachers even if it’s not your mess.  Also, outside the gyms have been left with garbage on the ground after snacks are passed out.  Please make sure all materials are placed in the garbage cans after your games.  If we all pitch in and help it should only take a minute or two after each game.

    Volunteers Needed
    Volunteers are also needed to help set up and close gyms for our upcoming summer season. Help is needed to set up tables, chairs and game equipment before all games and sweep, clean and put away all equipment after games. This usually takes 2-3 people about 20 minutes before and after games to complete.

    If you can help please email us at basketball@dfacsports.com
