The UCSD Women’s Basketball Camps will include a “Position Camp” and a “Young Players Camp.” There will also be the inaugural “UC San Diego High School Shootout” the day before the start of the San Diego Classic. All games will be played at RIMAC Arena. In conjunction with the start of the San Diego Classic, UCSD will also be offering three coaches clinics.
Led by UCSD women’s head coach Charity Elliott, the innovative methods include training players by position, incorporating the strength and conditioning piece into the week and several off-the-court chalk-talks about various aspects of the game that relate to the camper’s needs and goals, including the college “recruiting” experience. The goal of the camps is to have the individual take her game to another level and learn more about preparing herself to be the best player she can be.
Among the camps will be:
