Elite Youth Basketball Camp

In January 2025, we hosted an elite-level kids basketball camp across four major cities in China: Hong Kong, Chengdu, Shanghai, and Suzhou. Each 5-day camp welcomed around 50-70 young athletes and was led by our NBA-level trainers, making it ideal for kids with a solid basketball foundation looking to elevate their game. The program featured a dynamic and comprehensive curriculum, including advanced ball-handling and shooting mechanics, finishing through contact, off-ball movement, defensive fundamentals, and pick-n-roll. In addition to skill development, players engaged in game-like scenarios and small-sided competitions (2v2, 3v3, 5v5) to apply what they learned in real time. The camp also focused on building a strong team culture, leadership, and strategic understanding—ensuring that each participant not only improved their individual skills but also grew as a teammate and young leader on and off the court.

Coaches Clinics

Our 2-day Coaches Clinic held in January 2025 provided a deep dive into high-level coaching principles and practical application for basketball coaches across China. Day 1 focused on developing a strong coaching philosophy—emphasizing team culture, communication, motivation, and player development. Coaches learned how to assess skills, build individualized training plans, and implement effective offensive and defensive strategies. The clinics brought those concepts to life with hands-on training in structuring practices, utilizing film breakdowns, and managing time effectively. On Day 2, coaches refined their player development knowledge, learning which drills best translate to in-game scenarios and how to balance team vs. individual training. The clinic concluded with real-game scenarios, created development plans, and engaged in an open Q&A to share insights and solutions.
