Mike Ray’s Basketball Camp Attracts More Than 50
Fred King, Larry Weekley, Jim Lawrence, Doug Steele, and Kerry Woods were the featured guests at this year’s 22nd Mike Ray Basketball Camp at Hundred June 20-24 week, where they talked about the game of basketball and what it takes to be good basketball players. Assisting Ray with the camp were Terry Metz, Sam Longwell, Raven McDiffitt, and Greg Hostutler.
The campers were divided into three grade groups: elementary, 2-5; junior, 6-8; and senior 9-12 grades. When they arrived at 9:30 a.m. every day, campers were greeted with a welcome and told what to expect that day and what guest speaker was scheduled. The camp concluded with awards and remarks by Ray himself.
Each day, campers practiced foul shots, three-point shots, and hot- spot skill fundamentals, such as ball handling, shooting form, offensive moves in the perimeter, boxing out, offensive moves in the paint, and defending the dribbler and cutter.
Campers also had competitions in a 50-yard dash, Sargent Jump, and block jump, along with other drills like figure eight passing. They also had scrimmage games among their groups.
