FLINT (WJRT) -

(02/23/13) - The Flint Community Schools held a sign-up day for their Winter Sports Developmental League on Saturday.  

The free program is designed to get Flint kids interested in all kinds of sports, including wrestling, volleyball and soccer.

Among the people leading the effort is former professional women's basketball player Linnell Jones McKenney.    
 
"You know, what we want them to understand is to try to have a dream, and the dream is to develop your gifts, develop your talents, master that. Then you have an opportunity to play professionally maybe.  So we want them to understand you have a gift, you have a talent, but we have to provide that for them," McKenney said.

Flint Community Schools plans on having a spring sports developmental league in a few months.
