Point Guard College Clinic
The Point Guard College curriculum features courses for athletes and coaches that are designed to teach players how to train effectively, play smart basketball, become "coaches on the court," and demonstrate leadership during games, practices and in everyday life. Participants receive a university-style educational experience, including:




            • Classroom Learning Sessions - You will need a notebook and pen to take full advantage of PGC.
            • Video Analysis - You will study actual game footage to see examples-both good and bad-of every aspect of the game. These in-depth study sessions will help you learn to play-and watch-basketball in a more intelligent way.


  • Court Time Designed To Reinforce Good Habits - PGC's gym sessions are designed to turn the concepts that are taught in the classroom into productive action on the court. At PGC, we never "just roll out the basketballs and let 'em play." Each moment of every court session is carefully planned to maximize learning. A unique set of drills and game situations are used to build physical and mental habits that lead to smart, effective play.
  • Training in Leadership and Communication Skills - Special players positively impact the work ethic, focus and effort of their teammates. At Point Guard College we will teach you how to get your teammates to work harder, work together, overcome adversity, and succeed in the long term.
Sessions Include:
Meals for two days.
A Session Director who works with you all day-from 8:00 in the morning until 4 p.m.
A final exam to test what you've learned.
