CAMP DESCRIPTIONS
A: PERFORMANCE CAMP
Overview: The faster athlete usually comes out on top! Every athlete needs to increase their speed along with developing their strength. In this youth weight-room camp, players will learn proper running mechanics that will help them excel in their sprinting no matter what sport they are playing. Player will also develop general strength in this class. Everyone needs to be able to control their movements and by developing their strength we can increase the force they are able to put into the ground that will propel down the court or field. Players will work on take off mechanics, acceleration, speed, and general age appropriate strength.
B: SPEED/AGILITY CAMP
Overview: The ability to stop, go, and change direction at a high level are attributes all athletes need to have. At this camp, players will learn proper running mechanics that will help them accelerate and get off the line. Players will also be exposed to drills that will challenge them to come to a complete stop and transfer their movement into another direction. No matter what sport you play, being able to get up to top speed quickly, then stopping suddenly and making a quick cut can make the difference between scoring or not!
EXPLOSIVE CAMP
AUGUST 5TH-8TH
Overview: This camp will address your player’s ability to not only get off the ground, but be able to jump multiple times quickly (like when rebounding!). Basketball is a sport based around who can get up into the air and grab the ball before their opponent. In this class players will learn not only how to jump but also how to land properly to keep them safe as they return to the ground. Jumping is all about creating force in the body and transferring it through the ground. The best way to develop force is developing strength. Players will strengthen the muscles that are needed to developing explosive hops!

CAMP DESCRIPTIONS
A: PG Elite Camp
This Camp is for any players who play the guard position who wants to improve their individual skill and IQ! Over the years the point guard position has evolved from a 'pass only' position to a high pace position that involves passing AND scoring the ball. Point guards most be able to break down the defense and make 2 defenders guard them and make the right decision. At camp, players will get introduced to the 5 ways a PG should score and 3 things they should always consider on offense, as well as learn about things that do not show up on the stat sheet like understanding time/score and tempo. Great camp!
B: Shooting & Defense Camp
It is uniquely structured by having 2 days dedicated to each skill. The shooting portion gives players a clear understanding of the proper technique for shooting as well as a ton of reps on different ways a player gets their shot off. The technique portion is extremely specific and players get a true understanding of the 3 phases to a perfect jump shot. The defensive portion of camp creates a fun and energetic environment. Players learn the proper stance, footwork, IQ and the passion it takes to defend. Players will also learn team defensive concepts as well. As we like to say at M14 "offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships!"
C. Ball Handling Camp
ANKLE. BREAKING. RESULTS.
July PM 8th - 11th
July AM 22nd - 25th
August PM 12th - 15th
In the game of basketball today, every player needs to be able to dribble. This intense 4-Day camp will focus on the fundamentals of dribbling and also teach players advance 1-on-1 attack moves that will allow them to beat any defender of the dribble. The great thing about Explosive Handles is that it breaks down high level moves and makes them easy for players at any level to understand. This is the #1 Ball Handling Camp in the Nation!
D: Scoring Camp
PM July 22nd - 25th
AM August 5th - 8th
Basketball is simple: Put the ball in the hoop. However, this simple phrase actually is pretty hard to do. This camp will help players at all positions learn how to score. Camp will focus on the small details that make a huge difference. This camp will focus on 1on1 attack moves, finishing moves, jab steps, footwork and creating space so players can get their own shots off.
E: Shooting Camp
This camp will show why our shooting philosophy has helped some of the best shooters in the area have success. Each day the first half of camp will be dedicated to technique and footwork; we will teach players the correct way to shoot the ball and they will learn the correct moves to get their own shot off in a game. The last 90 minutes will be dedicated to repetition! Each player will get 100-150 shots up using the technique and methods they were just taught (catch & shoot, create space, using screens, pull ups off the dribble). After this camp player will have learned multiple ways to get their shot off and look good while doing it!
