Top college coaches will teach the game Sept. 19th at DeMatha Catholic

August 27th, 2009 - On September 19th, 2009, Team Takeover and DeMatha will conduct their 2nd Annual DMV Basketball Clinic. Again, full of top college head coaches - this year Bob Huggins (WVU), Tony Bennett (UVA), Jamie Dixon (Pitt) and Jay Wright (Villanova) - along with assistant coach Vance Walberg of UMASS, the clinic also boasts DeMatha's staff and players demonstrating player and team development.

For $75, it's a full day (9am - 5 pm) of basketball instruction, open to all. Prizes will be awarded to attendees also.

Why are DeMatha and Team Takeover committed to again providing such as benefit?

"It's great to bring college coaches into area and teach the principles that made them so successful" shared Team Takeover co-Director Ken Johnson of the motivation.

A high school coach himself (Fairfax, VA's Paul VI), Johnson continued, saying "We are marketing the clinic to youth and high school coaches", but make no mistake, anyone with an interest in hoops is invited, and including fans and "college coaches also".

In his estimation, such high level teaching of the game has and will continue and increase the D.C./Baltimore area as a hotbed of hoops: Proving that assertion, Johnson reminisced about the lessons taught Tywon Lawson and Donte Cunningham as on a team based around Andrews Air Force Base when the pair was around 10 years old. They were drafted into the NBA this spring.
