The 2010 Josh Pastner Basketball Academy is designed to teach young basketball players the fundamentals of basketball while also emphasizing the fun of the game. The camp will include different methods of teaching the game of basketball such as small station drills, daily team practices, full-court games and group lectures given by current Tiger coaches that are designed to advance the players' understanding of game concepts and team play.



Each team will be assigned a personal coach who will play daily team games to incorporate all of the fundamental skills they have learned throughout the day. Daily prizes and giveaways of both Memphis Tiger and various NBA memorabilia will be an everyday occurrence to add to the fun of the Josh Pastner Basketball Academy!



All camps are open to any and all entrants except for when limited by age, grade or gender.



Open to all varsity high school boys teams. Cost is $50 per team. Each team will play 2 games in either the Finch Center or Recreation Center on the University of Memphis campus. We will tailor the competition to ensure that games are competitive and productive. Each coach is responsible for bringing a light and dark colored jersey (or reversible practice jersey). Each coach is responsible for each of his players (parents) signing the Medical Waiver Form before that player may participate. No exceptions.
