Geocache Description:

I've decided to do up a series of caches dedicated to my favourite pastime. FTF will be e-mailed for the first lucky cacher. You are searching for a small container that is camoed to its environment. Please re-hide exactly as found and use stealth due to residential homes across the street. Also, watch the ground as this appears to be a wildlife toilet.


A crossover dribble is a basketball maneuver in which a player dribbling the ball switches the ball rapidly from one hand to the other, to make a change in direction.

The Killer Crossover is a variation of the basic Crossover Dribble. In this move the player fakes in one direction, generally with a wide step and a head fake and usually from a standstill. The player then switches the dribble to the other hand between his legs and moves in that direction. This is one of the most effective methods of escaping a defender who is guarding closely. It is also popular in streetball because it can cause the defender to lose balance and fall in trying to react too quickly. This move was the calling card of the Great Tim Hardaway, who popularized this move with the Miami Heat & Golden State Warriors.


Don't too many players get offers like me,
I'm back-n-forth likely,
Shake the cheks off your Nike's.
They almost had me in a suit at the draft,
'Cuz it look like a free throw When I be shootin' from half.
First step like Iverson, blow past you.
It'll be nothin' but net, but I can go glass too.
When I'm in the paint the defense so shook,
They don't know if I'm gonna put up a slow hook,
Or dish up a no look!
See my game consist of a whole lotta,
Moves you would think I learned from the Harlem Globe Trotters
JD gonna lead us to the ring,
Fab and Bow Wow is the only players that makes the cheerleaders wanna sing
