The 2009 NOAH Jaguars Basketball Skills Camp and Shooting Camp are scheduled July 20-23 (Monday-Thursday) at First United Methodist Church of Tulsa’s Youth & Family Center in downtown Tulsa (1115 S. Boulder).
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR NOAH FAMILIES: We are allowing NOAH players the opportunity to sign up before anyone else. However, this early registration period exclusively for NOAH families will only run through June 26. We are only going to allow a certain number of participants, so please sign up before June 26, and don’t be left out.
Instruction throughout the week of the camp will be provided by NOAH’s own Matt Price, and his brothers Mark and Brent Price, both of whom played in the NBA for a number of years.
Both boys and girls ages 8 to 18 are eligible to participate in the two separate camps throughout the week – a Skills Camp the first part of the week, and a one-day Shooting Camp on Thursday afternoon.
The Skills Camp sessions for boys are scheduled for 9 a.m.-noon, Monday through Thursday.
The Skills Camp sessions for girls are scheduled from 1-4 p.m. Monday through Wednesday.
The Shooting Camp – for both boys and girls – is scheduled for 1-4 p.m. Thursday.
NOAH players will receive a 50 percent discount on the price of participating in the camps. The cost to attend both camps will be $150 … but for NOAH players it will be just $75, which includes a camp T-shirt. The Shooting camp cost is $100 ($50 for NOAH athletes).
The Shooting Camp will be unlike any other camp offered in the United States, as all three Price brothers will be offering instruction during the Thursday afternoon session.
Mark Price, an assistant coach with the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks, was a four-time NBA All-Star who is widely considered one of the game’s greatest shooters. He retired in 1998 but remains the NBA record holder for career free-throw percentage. NBA teams send players to him for individual shooting instruction, and he will be teaching the same techniques and drills he uses with the pro players during this special camp.
Brent Price, a nine-year NBA veteran who played for the Washington Bullets, Houston Rockets, Vancouver Grizzlies and Sacramento Kings before retiring in 2003, also will be offering instruction throughout the week at both the Skills Camp and Shooting Camp.
Matt Price is a former college coach and college player who will serve as director of both camps.
A concessions stand will be available each day of the camp.
