We have a world-class training facility that has served as the home of some of the nation’s premier basketball events, camps and tournaments over the past ten years. We have seven courts, a 3,000 square foot shooting lab equipped with cutting edge technology, a 12,000 square foot performance and weight training area and classrooms right off the courts.

Nationally Recognized Training Programs:
There is a reason ten pro teams sent players to train with us to get ready for the NBA and WNBA seasons. Our teaching methods and staff are nationally recognized for player development. At the youth level there are few real teachers in the game of basketball in the US. There is a great need to get back to the real fundamentals – footwork, balance, body control and economy of motion. We get players an edge because we teach things nobody else is teaching.

High Performance Camp
We designed this camp for advanced players who want more than your average summer basketball camp. Most camps either cater to all ages and skill levels (e.g. typical high school or college camp) or focus on competitive play with little time spent on tactical and technical skill development. Click Here to view our Player Development Pyramid to see the progression of development.
The High Performance Camp is for players that are looking for a week of intensive learning and training. Campers will not only receive basketball specific training but will also participate in SAQ (speed, agility and quickness) training in our 12,000 square foot performance center. Players will spend time in the classroom watching film of various elite players to raise the player’s tactical awareness.
Another major benefit of this camp is that it doesn’t end after one week. Its important that players take what they have learned and continue to work on their own. We will spend time teaching them how to work on their own and also provide them with a written workout and instructions so they can continue to work on developing their skills throughout the year. Players will also be given a tutorial on how to use the On Court Player Development online Virtual Trainer that will help them practice on their own.
High Performance Camp Highlights
- Basketball Training with Certified Instructors utilizing our Nationally Recognized teaching curriculum.
- A camp geared toward advanced players, which covers more than just playing games.
- Video based instruction to enhance player’s tactical awareness.
