Just got back from 5 days at Five Star basketball camp (Best in the country) held at Fordham University in the Bronx. This camp was LOADED with talent and I was fortunate enough to coach players in the "NBA Division" that will have major Big East and ACC schools calling them come July 1st (Live recruiting period). Always love going to these camps not only to teach high school players the game of basketball but to continue to learn the game myself from the best in the business. Talking basketball with Evan Pickman (NBA scout), Tony Bergeron (coached lottery pick in 2009 NBA draft, Tyreke Evans in HS), Mitch Buonaguro (Siena Coach) among other great college and high school coaches is awfully stimulating. Trying to understand how they approach the game, talking X's and O's, what works and what doesn't.
With our Fundamental Mini-Camp starting Monday, it was particularly refreshing to see a lecture in front of the whole camp (that two Morris Catholic players also attended) by Tony Bergeron. The title of the lecture was "Footwork for Future Fame". The main focus was on triple threat, jumpstops and pivoting (crucial for our new offense "Drive").
Can't wait for Mini-Camp!!! Gotta get better!!!
