NCAA March Madness is underway and teams have been running plays to perfection. In the first round of play, Albany may not have had the talent to match up with Florida but some of their sets allowed them to compete and make it more of a matchup than what people expected. This set is simple but effective with numerous options to score and throw the defense off balance.
This play begins in a 1-4 set with the ball being entered into the high post. On the catch, P2 goes backdoor looking for a layup. Next P1 sets his man up and cuts to the ball side corner. P3 then curls around the top of the key off of a downscreen into a dribble handoff with P5 trying to turn the corner. Lastly, a staggered screen is set for P2 in the weak side corner looking for a jumpshot.

Alabama may be known for the amazing football being played in the state but basketball is definite on the rise in the Heart of Dixie! Excitingly, NIKE and Elite Hoops are still singing and starting in "Sweet Home Alabama"! Over the past 6 years, Homewood High School has been Elite Hoops sweet home of Alabama. Each year the Homewood basketball camp sells out. After the successful turnout last year, Elite Hoops will once again host a coed camp at Vestavia Hills, as well as two all boys camps at Homewood. The 2014 NIKE Basketball Camp season will start at Vestavia Hills May 27-30. June 23-27 and July 21-25 are the dates of the Homewood High School camps in Alabama.

Elite Hoops Basketball Playset: Alabama

The SEC tournament is currently underway and coaches are pulling out their best sets. Alabama has figured out a way to utilize their small personel by running this set against LSU. In order for this play to work to perfection, your guards need to be able to handle the ball and your 4man needs to be able to shoot from the perimeter. If guards are aggressive enough, they may be able to turn the corner and get to the rim for a layup or draw a foul.
"Alabama" begins with P1 dribbling off of the staggered ball screen set by P5 and P4. P5 instantly dives to the rim looking for a drop off pass while P4 continues to set a down screen for P2 in the corner. If P2 is not open for the shot, P4 follows with a ball screen from the baseline. After the pick and pop action occurs, P1 and P5 set a staggered screen for P3 in the weak side corner to finish the play.

Nashville is known for 3 things during the beautiful summer. Great music, delicious food, and the best summer basketball camps!

Christ Presbyterian Academy (CPA), Hendersonville Baptist Church, and A Game Complex in Franklin, TN have successfully sold out camps each summer of existence. In addition, we will add Currey Ingram Academy as new locations.
The success of the Elite Hoops NIKE Basketball Camps in Nashville is mostly owed to the well polished and hard work of CPA's Head Boys Varsity Basketball Coach Drew Maddux. Maddux has done a superior job with elevating the basketball play at CPA. In the 2012 season he lead his team to a AA State Championship with a 37-2 overall record. Since 2008, Maddux has over 10 district, regional, and sectional championships. Coach Maddux will be the director of all 5 camps this summer.

If the game of basketball had a mascot, it would be a pine tree. Why you ask? The history of basketball proves that pine wood played a major role in the development of the great sport. In the beginning, pine wood was commonly used for basketball courts and bleachers. The phrase "ride the pine" for players that did not get a chance to play, originated from the pine wood made benches. Now different wood and materials are used for courts and seating, but Elite Hoops decided to keep the pine wood tradition alive. This summer, the 5th annual NIKE Basketball Camp will be in Cumming, Ga at Piney Grove Middle School. The coincidentally named middle school has sold out each of the previous 4 summers. Camp will have a combination of old school work ethic with a new school style.
Elite Hoops own Lee Miller will be hosting the Cumming NIKE Basketball Camp in June. Outside of Miller's great work with Elite Hoops, his resume speaks volumes. Miller has directed/worked camps including the University of Georgia, Duke University, NBA Complete Player Camp, and Pete Newell's Big Man Camp in Las Vegas. If you think you can keep up, come to Piney Grove Middle School this summer.
The 2014 NIKE Boys Basketball Camp at Piney Grove Middle School in Cumming, Georgia will be held June 16-20, 2014. To sign up and register, please select the link below.
