Elkhorn Attack Boys & Elkhorn Elite Girls Basketball

4-Week Summer Basketball Skills Development Program

For 1st thru 8th Grade Players

 

Program Information:

Our belief is that all camps and clinics are awesome for the players to participate in. Any touches of the basketball in the offseason are great and make a huge difference in a player’s ability and confidence! However, with that, it is also our belief that the best way to ensure improvement and change, is through continued repetition and reinforcement, until the desired change and improvement becomes the new “normal”. Most young athletes benefit from this approach and their progress is measurable. We don’t leave it all on the athlete to create new habits on their own. We know that it takes a lot of repetition and several weeks to create new habits, improve shooting form, feel comfortable handling the ball with pressure, etc. Our program is unique in this area, in that we dedicate the time, effort and resources to see change and improvement, through to the end.  

 

The Elkhorn Attack Boys & Elkhorn Elite Girls Summer Basketball Skills Program is designed to allow all area players entering the grades of 1st thru 8th in the 2024-2025 school year, the opportunity to enhance their basketball skills in a highly structured summer basketball learning environment. The goal of the program is to develop greater skills within each player by allowing them the opportunity to get top-notch instruction, and the opportunity to work on the fundamentals of the game in an academy-style setting. The program will specifically focus on fundamental development, with consistency and repetition being the priority.  For the duration of this program, we do not play games and we do not scrimmage.  We work on skills and basketball development, with a strategic goal of changing and improving basketball skills over an extended time frame, so that improvement is continually reinforced and becomes habit.

 

 

Session Information:

The Skills Program will be 4 weeks in-length and will offer 8 high-quality, structured, sessions during the summer. Each session will be 80 minutes in length and will be held locally in Elkhorn at the UBT South Sports Complex. The focus of each session will be on developing athletic, fundamentally sound, complete basketball players!  During registration, parents will select the anticipated ability level of their child and we will place the players accordingly, so that every player is being challenged and more skilled players are being taught more advanced skills.
