Poised and ready to conquer new opportunities and challenges, The Coach Willis Wilson Basketball Camp are still primed for action this summer. Rest assured that the recent changes at Rice University will in no way affect the quality, professional instruction and commitment that the Willis Wilson Basketball Camps have always delivered! See you on the courts!

 

 

We know that there is a simple reason why our camps have continued to be successful throughout the year; our commitment is to each individual player. Campers divide into leagues by age and ability, then are placed on a team with their own coach for the entirety of camp. Each day starts with Team Organization where we cover individual offense, ball handling, passing, shooting, layups, team defense and team offense. After that there will always be a Lecture/Breakdown session by one of the Rice staff members covering a certain aspect of the game, and then a 'breakdown' session with their individual coach.

Games are a blast! Everyone plays the same amount of time because of our timed substitution pattern. We stress team offense, team defense and 'carry over' of skills that were covered earlier in camp. Every day we have some sort of Individual Competition to make sure that the day ends up fun and with lots of competition. We also have daily Stations where campers rotate from basket to basket working on a different skill with a different camp coach.

Our Camp Awards include the one-on-one championship, hot shot, best defensive player, best hustler, most improved player and most valuable player in each league. And while individuals win honors we always stress that "teams win championships." Learn to play as a teammate and value teamwork!

GUARD CLINIC
Saturday (Only), 9am-4pm
**Revised 2/25/08**
Grades 2-12 Cost: $80

First Presbyterian July 26

Our goal at Guard Camp is to build solid habits of play; habits that translate to details that make all the difference. We begin with triple threat (ready to shoot, drive and pass) and emphasize that position throughout the 9 hours of camp. We concentrate on shooting technique, proper footwork on lay-ups, game passing, pivoting out of trouble, good screening fundamentals that lead to team play, ball handling that leads to game execution and fast break fundamentals. We play games of 3-on-3 “Cut Throat” to carry over our practice to play. Guard Camp is 9 hours of moving, listening, executing and repeating great basketball habits.
