WATCH: It's Week 4 of our weekly Skills at Home programme and this time, it's all about shooting drills with @mareebasketball and Irish international star, Dayna Finn #GreenShoots #SheGotGame #WomeninSportIRE #20x20 #DreamBig #GetActive #StayAtHome @sportireland @20x20_ie

* Kara is ranked as 11th on leaderboard but when you check videos can see there is only 2 ahead of her actually dribbling the ball vs holding ball in both hands etc! Morgan Blackfield and Jackson Robinson the only 2 legit entries ahead of her.

[Courtside Collective @courtsideco]

For the day that's in it check out current @BballIrl u17 star Kara McCleane's cone dribble entry on @HomeCourtai - she's currently ranked 3rd worldwide (all age groups/ all time!) - see next tweet for ranking details.
