Mankato Community Education

The emphasis of the clinic will be placed on ball handling, dribbling, pivoting, passing, and one-on-one moves, perimeter shots, and free throws. The entire objective of the program is to introduce the boys to the correct fundamentals used in the game of basketball. The clinic offers little opportunity in playing real games. In the time allotted for the program, our coaching staff feels it is more important to spend the time teaching proper individual techniques. Members of the Cougar coaching staff will be present at the sessions with the varsity and junior varsity players demonstrating and teaching. We look forward to helping your son get a healthy introduction or progressing further in his current understanding of basketball and love of the game.

This camp will feature technique and drills taught by members of the Mankato East coaching staff. Games and body awareness drills will also be used, making it a great way to tune up for the upcoming season. Participants should wear athletic clothing, wrestling shoes, and headgear (if wanted). Drop-off and pick up will be at Door 2. Please note that high school gets out at 3:35. Parents can walk students to the wrestling room, but please no parents in the wrestling room during practice.
