This clinic features the disciplines of dodging, shooting, and defending against dodges. All elements will be broken down and fine-tuned to get you ready for the next level of play.
Shooting and dodging skills are the heart of an offensive player’s game and some of the hardest to master. We will also focus on defending the dodge, playing angles, and other skills critical to
success.
Our methodology is sound, proven, and unique and no one in the nation does it better. Combined with our world class teachers/leaders, this is a can’t miss event.
The Northstar Academy is a two-day, high intensity opportunity for players who need and want to be the best. Athletes will learn from our pro-level staff while competing with other great players from across the state.
Don't stay home while others are getting better!
