BASKETBALL CLINICS 

 

Elite Guard & Big Man Clinic - These specialized training camps are for point guards, shooting guards, and wings. Players will learn elite decision-making off various pick options and perfect their instinctual passing, floaters, and crafty finishes. Players will also learn to play big and physically. They’ll learn the “dream shake” and multiple pivot options. They’ll also work on multiple finishes at the rim with both hands, proper post-up positioning, and learn how to handle the double team in passing out.

Defense and Shooting Clinics - These specialized training clinics are designed to teach proper defensive techniques and footwork. Players will learn to play with intensity while learning how to closeout, defensive slide and recover, and boxing out.  Players will also shoot a lot of shots from various spots on the court (close off the glass, mid-range, 3pt, corners, floaters) and will play man-to-man (King of Court) and 3 vs, 3 (fast break).

Physicality and Finishing Clinic - These clinics are designed to teach players how to play through contact and finish when being pressured. Players will learn techniques such as high pick-up, low pick-up, tuck pick-up, veer finishing, bump euro, and bump fade. They'll also learn how to get open from pressure, combo moves through pressure, and how to fight through screens. 

All Around Tryout Prep Clinics - Get a head start on what skills and drills your child will need to make the Blueprints AAU team. This will give your child the best chance to succeed during tryouts.  Ask questions and get detailed instructions from our staff.
