The 2010 Pacesetter “College Prep” Basketball Camp is designed for high-level players entering grades 9-12 who would like to prepare for college-level basketball by learning the complete offensive and defensive skills needed to attract college coaches.

Boys and Girls: Tuesday-Thurday, June 29-July 1
Paynesville High School, Paynesville, MN

CAMP DIRECTORS: The camp directors will be college coaches or former college players who have played at a high level and have experience teaching high-level players. The 2010 staff will be announced on this site when the coaches have been assigned.

“College Prep” Camp Program
Players will be taught all individual skills needed to push their game to a college level, including 1) handling full-court pressure in 1-on-1, 2-on-2, 3-on-3 situations, plus attacking full-court zone and man-to-man presses, 2) passing against full and half court pressure, 3) learning to get open and get to the basket against strong, quick players, 4) learning to post up and score or pass from the post, 5) learning to move without the ball to attack and breakdown the defense and score off passes, 6) learning facing moves to break down individual defenders and create shots off the dribble, 7) learning to use the pick and roll in various ways and to defend it on defense, 8) learning to rebound against power players and create fastbreaks from rebounds and steals, 9) learning tips on health and fitness and strength, 10) learning how to get the attention of college coaches.

Coaching Staff
The ratio of players to coaches will not exceed 12-1, so all players will get excellent individual attention. This camp will be limited to 48 players, so players will have ready access to the available baskets and coaches. This camp is limited to the first 48 players to register.

Registration Information
This camp has filled quickly in the past, so interested players are encouraged to register soon. A form may be downloaded here or players may register online here.

Camp Fees and Room and Board Option
Players may commute or receive room and board. The camp fee has been lowered this year from $170 to $140 due to a change of facilities from St. Ben's to Paynesville High School. Room and board fees are $120 for seven meals and two nights lodging at the Country Inn across from the school where all coaches and players will be housed.

Supervision
Residential players will be supervised 24 hours a day by the Pacesetter staff. The Pacesetter coaching staff will accompany all campers every step from the hotel to the gym and back. The Pacesetter staff will also stay in rooms next to the players to maintain 24-hour supervision.

Dependability
Pacesetter has been the Midwest leader in offering high-quality low-cost camp instruction since 1980 featuring some of Minnesota’s legendary players and coaches as camp teachers.
