The four days in each of our boys and girls sessions, in the summer at Earlham College, will be packed with the instruction, techniques, and drills a player needs to shoot the basketball well.
Instruction and Improvement
How a player is drilled is one of the keys to becoming a great shooter. Your player will be drilled twice daily on shooting and other offensive fundamentals such as dribbling, shot fake, driving, pivoting, and passing. We believe after teaching shooting for 40 plus years our shooting and scoring techniques are second to none. We have had so many testimonials where a player was an average shooter on the reserve team and, after attending our camp, went back and led the varsity team in shooting. The ratio of players per coach is 10-12 players per coach.
Individual Instruction
Players state they receive more individual instruction and attention at our camp than any other basketball camp they have attended. Each player takes home 2 instructional evaluations on his or her shooting. Besides drilling on shooting at a station twice a day, we provide the best one-on-one instruction in the country. Six professional shooting instructors, trained by Dick Baumgartner, are on duty. Only these trained coaches work with the players on a one-on-one basis. Your player can go to these coaches for one-on-one instruction several times during the week. They are on duty morning, noon and night.
Games and Competition
The camp will provide strong competition. Each player will play three games a day. There will also be contests and prizes during the week. Players will live and play in groups according to age and ability. Each player will be supervised by a qualified coach.
Long Range Shooting
Besides teaching your player to shoot off the pass, the dribble, and the stationary position, we can help him or her with their 3 point shot. After a four year study and another four years working with players on 3 point shooting, we can easily help develop better range. We will also show players how to practice 3 point shooting. This is very important because long range shooting needs to be practiced correctly or it can be detrimental to a player’s shot.
