One session is for those aged five to 10 and Grades 6-12 for the other three.

Two clinics for grades six through 12 will be held on Saturday. The Point Guard Clinic, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., will cover ball handling, decision-making, and game management. The Shooting/Iso Scoring Clinic, 1:00 p.m. to 4 p.m., covers ball screen reads, attacking closeouts and match ups, and footwork and mechanics.
