Day 5: Championship Friday at NIKE Camp St. Francis

Posted by Chris Langley | Sunday, July 29, 2012 | Category: | 0 comments



Championship Friday was an exciting day for all NIKE Camp Coaches and players at St. Francis High School! The 60+ campers knew that they would have to perform at their highest level to meet the expectation of parents, friends and family in attendance, and this hard working group of campers did not let themselves or their families down!

The morning started out with players receiving their NIKE camp t-shirts. After a quick camp photo, campers were then led in a quick stationary stretch and warm-up where the players got their minds and bodies warmed up for the skills stations to follow. After warming up, the players headed into a gauntlet of 8 Skills Stations for the last time. The campers all worked extremely hard during Skills Stations and were reminded to "not mistake activity for achievement," as they were "tested" on all the skill that they were taught in stations throughout the week! Our goal for players during the week is to get 1% better each day. Although that may not seem like much, if each player can commit to getting 1% better each day they step on the floor, then they will become much better players.

Next, players participated in their 5 on 5 Championship games. After some exciting action and some upsets, taking home the championship this week were the Celtics, of the NBA division, UGA, of the College Division, and Blessed Trinity, of the High School Division. Great job guys! 

Living by Numbers Championships followed the exciting 5 on 5 match-ups. Players from each division competed in the Mikan Drill, Figure 8 No Dribble, Cone Jumpers, and Hot Shot for NIKE prizes! You can check-out the winning players below!

Our 3 on 3 Cut Throat competition was next and the improvement from Monday to Friday was immense. With our strict rules of-calling out your team score, catching in triple threat, making at least 3 passes, screening or cutting after every pass, only having 3 dribbles per catch and yelling "ball, deny or help" on defense-the players showed how they can play team basketball if they work at it.

We ended camp with our Awards Ceremony. The players listed below are our Living by Numbers Champions and Individual Award Winners for the NIKE Elite Hoops Basketball Camp at St. Francis High School.

Day 5: Championship Friday at NIKE Camp at Kedron Fieldhouse

Posted by Chris Langley | Friday, July 20, 2012 | Category: | 0 comments

Championship Friday was an exciting day for all NIKE Camp Coaches and players at Kedron Fieldhouse in Peachtree City, Georgia! After an exciting 4 days full of basketball, sweat, and fun, the campers knew that they would have to perform at their highest level to meet the expectation of parents, friends and family in attendance, and this hard working group of campers did not let themselves or their families down!

The morning started out with players receiving their NIKE camp t-shirts. After a quick camp photo, campers were then led in a quick stationary stretch and warm-up where the players got their minds and bodies warmed up for the skills stations to follow. After warming up, the players headed into a gauntlet of 8 Skills Stations for the last time. The campers all worked extremely hard during Skills Stations and were reminded that "hard work brings prosperity" and that if they worked hard on the court, and prepared themselves physically and mentally, good things would happen to them!

Our goal for players during the week is to get 1% better each day. Although that may not seem like much, if each player can commit to getting 1% better each day they step on the floor, then they will become much better players by the time tryouts start in October.
After skills stations, players participated in their 5 on 5 Semi-Final and Championship games. After some exciting action and some upsets, taking home the championship this week were the Heat, of the NBA division, UGA, of the College Division, and McIntosh, of the High School Division. Great job guys!

Living by Numbers Championships followed the exciting 5 on 5 match-ups. Players from each division competed in the Mikan Drill, Figure 8 No Dribble, Cone Jumpers, and Hot Shot for NIKE prizes! We had some great individual performances in each of these competitions! You can check-out the winning players below!
