Credentials:

Young Ryder Bruce might be young. But that’s not stopping him from playing ball with the big boys. Bruce is a member of T-Ball and Biddy Basketball locally. He said that he loves to compete in both sports equally. Away from the playing field, Bruce is likely to be hanging with his older brothers Sidney or Jaevyn. He’s also a big fan of the movie Hotel Transylvania. Ryder said the best advice ever given to him by a coach is to “try your best and have fun.”
