LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Garth Brooks took time from his tour in Lexington, Kentucky to shoot a few hoops with some local youth.

The Lexington Herald-Leader (http://bit.ly/1s5gSB3) reports that Brooks and Teammates for Kids, an organization he co-founded, provided a basketball camp for kids Saturday at the Joe Craft Center on the University of Kentucky campus.

Brooks was in Lexington to perform at Rupp Arena over two nights.

A camp will be held in every city of Brooks’ world tour. Brooks and the organization’s athletes volunteer to coach kids in football, basketball, baseball, hockey or soccer.
