Dear Athlete and Parents: This basketball school is a reflection of the tremendous amount of dedicated coaching I've received throughout my career as a student/athlete and a professional basketball player. Over the past thirty-four years, with the assistance of many highly qualified and respected basketball coaches from the New England region, an extremely successful program has evolved. Each year we attempt to improve our service of providing an instructional and motivational program to young athletes so they might better understand the skills and disciplines associated with basketball. The staff look forward to playing and working with you this summer.
Dave Cowens, President/Director:
People Joe Amorosino, Supervisor/Lecturer: Program Coordinators: Coaches and Assistant Coaches: Past Guest Lecturers: Youngsters have enrolled at the basketball school from Greece, Puerto Rico, Sweden, England, Liberia, Belgium, Canada, Israel, Spain, Nigeria, Venezuela, Austria, France, Wales, Hong Kong, Japan, and across the USA. The deep commitment that Dave, Joe and the entire staff have to team play, combined with their years of experience instructing children and teenagers, provide a unique background for this basketball school.
Program The curriculum is carefully supervised. There is one coach for each team, approximately eleven youngsters per team. These groups will participate in an equitable and competitive system of organized play. Daily emphasis will be given to shooting, rebounding, ball handling, defensive and other fundamental skills. Each camper is encouraged to develop his or her specific athletic capability while giving particular attention to team involvement. The program will include minimum of two games per day. Dave's staff, along with guest lecturers, will work to benefit both player and coach. The game's finer points will be demonstrated and innovative drills outlined. Particular emphasis will be placed on the individual. A talent evaluation will be given on the first day to insure proper competitive placement. A complete report will be submitted on each camper's daily development.
Registration Day Registration day is held on Sunday of each week of camp. Please be at camp promptly at 1:00 p.m. Registration will be held at Meadows Dormitory. We regret that we will be unable to register any student who has not paid the tuition in full and has not given us the completed/signed medical information required by State law, in advance.
