Elle Ruffridge

HOW SWEET WAS THAT

ARE. YOU. JOKING. IOWA LEADS. THIS IS MARCH. #MarchMadness

𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐁𝐀𝐒𝐊𝐄𝐓𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐅𝐔𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐂𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐂 🏀💪🏆 Special thanks to the high school coaches who helped run our clinic! Stephanie Dacey, Williamsburg Elle Ruffridge, Spirit Lake Scott DeJong, former Ankeny Centennial Katie Keitges, Knoxville HS & U of Omaha grad Zach Clark (Central Decatur AD) & Brad Rose (former Valley AD) 2026 Basketball Future Champions Clinic presented by @hyvee & @catchdesmoines #IGHSAU #IowaGirl #StateBasketball

When you have the arena rented for the whole day and games don’t start until 2:30, what do you do? You bring in 100 JH/Elem girls for a youth clinic. Lucky girls to learn from legends - Elle Ruffridge, Stephanie Rich Dacey and Coach Scott DeJong. Don’t know them, Google it!

The difference is the relentless effort you decide to give for your team.

A great night of basketball with 4 very talented teams competing against each. @HeelanGirlsBB @HintonGirlsBB @garriganbb @IGHSAU

I stopped paying for my daughter’s piano lessons when she stopped practicing. No amt of lessons would make her better if she wasn’t practicing on her own. Bball is the same. A trainer is great, but without putting in extra work the skills don’t stick.

It took a village to experience the success that we did. Just a bunch of girls who loved to win (on and off the court). I miss PAC and competing with my best friends❤️

Thanks again for having me!! 🏀💪🏼

Great 1st day of youth camp. Close to 50 girls working to get better and having fun. @SpiritLakeIA @IGHSAU @cjeilers
