CAMP PURPOSE
IMS Basketball Camp will seek to provide sound instruction
of basketball fundamentals within an environment also
conducive to personal growth and spiritual development. It
is imperative that each camper come with an attitude of
openness to what is involved in becoming a better person as
well as a better basketball player.
WHAT TO EXPECT
IMS Basketball Camp will emphasize progressive instruction
on the basic fundamentals of basketball. Each camper will
be taught the proper techniques of shooting, passing,
offensive moves, and valuable ball-handling skills as well as
defensive techniques, rebounding fundamentals and
position play. Camp will be fun! It will also be work! Each
camper will be pushed, regardless of skill level, to improve
his/her game.
