2013 GAMCA Basketball Coaches Clinic Recap

The inaugural GAMCA Basketball Coaches Clinic took place at Charles Drew High this past Saturday. It was a prime example of the same coaches who teach and emphasize execution coming together to execute an event that was definitely a "W" for all involved.

There were on-court demonstrations, dialogue, and interaction that made the day fly by, relatively speaking. I'm sure the day seemed much longer for Coach Izzy Ingle's Gordon State College team who provided the manpower for every coach's on-court demonstration. For each of the seven accomplished coaches who spoke, you had skills and drill sessions being performed by the Highlanders - they did a lot, they learned a lot, and they showed a lot on behalf of Coach Ingle and their basketball program down there in Barnesville, GA
