In our 1-on-1 stations, you'll learn new ways to break down defenders in 4-low or isolation situations, creating scoring opportunities for yourself at will. Expand your shooting range and make the 3-pointer and deep 3-pointer part of your offensive arsenal through our specialised shooting stations. Pass like a Pro in our competive pass-at-pace stations that will push you beyond your current capabilities towards pass mastery. * POINT GUARD TESTING COMBINE & RANKING* Our PG Skills Test provides a comprehensive combine that objectively scores your performance across a series of skill-based drills and athletic tests. This includes a PG IQ test to assess your basketball knowledge and identify areas for improvement. Your scores will contribute to the Point Guard Ranking List, showcasing the camps top performers and giving you an objective assessment of where you are now and areas you should focus on for continued improvement. * CAREER PLANNING WITH Q&A CHALK TALK SESSIONS* Gain insights into the basketball world and how to progress and navigate your way through each level. Understand your current position within your journey, and chart the necessary steps for progression. Our ultimate goal is to inspire you to reach new heights both on and off the court, helping you understand what scouts and coaches are looking for at the next level and what you need to do to fulfil their needs. * RECOGNITION & AWARDS* At the end of the camp, we will recognise outstanding performers with coveted awards, including Camp MVP, Best Passer, Best Leader, Best Handle, and Best Shooter.
