Blaine Girls Youth Basketball
2023 Blaine Girls Youth Summer Camp
The goals of the summer fundamental camps are to improve player development and basic fundamental basketball skills.
Players will be introduced to fundamental skills and drills with the intent that players will continue to work on them beyond the camp dates and implement them into their game during basketball season.
The basic skills and drills taught are the foundation of becoming a solid basketball player. Time, effort, and commitment each player makes to themselves and their game create what type of player they want to become.

The software uses artificial intelligence (ai) in combination with the camera on your device to capture and analyze your shooting and dribbling. Offering training and workouts that seem more like video games than drills.
Requirements: an iPhone or iPad and a basketball for dribbling drills.
Shooting analysis requires the device in a location (preferably behind the shooter) to see the basket and the shooter at the free throw distance for AI to set the measurements.
Monthly fee may be required for features.
