Parents, family and friends looking for a unique stocking stuffer for the holidays can now register their children for one of the 2009 Doc Sadler Basketball Camps as camp and clinic dates were announced on Wednesday.
<?xml:namespace prefix="o" ns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"?>
For the third year in a row, Nebraska basketball coach Doc Sadler and his staff will present a number of camps and clinics for children of all ages and skill sets. Five-year-olds through seniors in high school are encouraged to come to the Doc Sadler Basketball Camps where they can learn the fundamentals of the game in an enjoyable setting.
There will be seven individual camps and clinics put on by the Husker coaching staff in 2009, all in the month of July, while a team clinic will be held on the final weekend of June. Returning to the lineup are individual day camp, overnight camp, team camp, ballhandling and shooting clinics and a post player clinic. Also this season there will be a pair of camps that will give an opportunity for younger children to learn more about the game, including a new Mini-Husker Camp (grades 7 and below) and a Little Dribblers Camp (ages 5 to 8).
All the camps and clinics will give children a chance to improve their game in a competitive setting while also learning more about technique and the fundamental principles of the game on an individual and team basis. The specialty clinics will also provide a more focused evaluation of player skills and areas to gain improvement.
