Boot Camp Basketball was started with the goal of providing an affordable basketball camp to children of
the Pittsburgh area in grades K-8.
The camp is run by the Director of the University of Pittsburgh Little Panthers
basketball club. He has experience coaching at the grade school, AAU and high school levels. Boot Camp Basketball features
a heavy emphasis on the fundamentals of basketball such as: dribbling drills - especially two ball dribbling drills,
shooting technique, rebounding drills and proper defensive technique.
While the cost of Boot Camp Basketball is low compared to the other basketball camps in the area,
the level of instruction that your child will receive is not second rate. Your child will do the same drills that they do
at the other camps and probably some that they do not. In addition, your child will also receive specialized instruction and
progress monitoring.
Our primary goal is to give your child the technique, coaching and support to take their basketball
game to the next level. We chose to limit our camp to grade school age players and we have a specialized game plan to
turn "C" players into "B" players and "B" players into "A" players. We take great pride in seeing our Boot Camp Basketball
alums excel at the grade school, AAU and high school levels.
