“Point Guard College is an intensive indoctrination into how to play smart, minimize turnovers, and be a good leader. These are great, great teachers of the game.”—Rick Allison, Director. Lone Star Basketball Academy, Arlington, Texas.

“I learned a ton at Point Guard College. I learned a lot on the court, but I got even more out of the sessions on leadership and confidence. PGC opened my eyes, and I got that love back that I was kind of missing last year. Just being around people who loved the game so much, it got me excited again."—Kristi Toliver, University of Maryland, First-team All-American and Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year.

Now, Point Guard College (PGC) is coming to a basketball court near you. And now players—both male and female—can reap the benefits from this intense training program that is regarded by many great players and coaches as “the best basketball training program in America.”

What makes Point Guard College so special? PGC uses classroom sessions, video analysis, and a series of unique, competitive on-court drills and games to teach individual development, smart basketball, and a complete package of leadership skills. That’s why, although most of our participants are high-school athletes, NCAA coaches sent more than 250 of their players—including four All-Americans—to Point Guard College last summer.
