"Blue-Chip" Specialty Camp

 

Mark down the dates of June 25 and 26 if you want to learn the finer points of pivot play. Though it is aimed at taller players, many guards have found that the ability to post up can diversify their offense. Veteran high school coach, Randy Ward, heads a quality staff that can turn potential into results in the paint. Coach Ward has almost 40 years experience coaching at the high school level.  Come to the Post Camp, and then put what you learned into practice immediately in your summer play. The camp begins at 2 PM on June 25th and ends at noon on June 26th.
