Newcastle-under-Lyme College Knights and Hoopskills host Basketball Camp

Hoopskills basketball came to the Gordon Banks Sports Centre and put on a classic basketball festival that left the youth wanting more.



Hoopskills ...along with Newcastle under Lyme College started putting on the festivals last year. The numbers at this year’s festival doubled the number from last year. Jamison who strives on teaching kids to play the game of basketball the right way enlisted one of his good friends to run the days activities. Malcolm Leak who is the Head Basketball Coach at Burnley College made the journey down. Leak did not disappoint as he put the guys through an intense workout.



The day’s activities were concentrated on the basic fundamentals of basketball. (Step your game up) was the theme of the day. This means if you (Know the Game) then you should be stepping your game up!! Coach Jamison had this to say,” What a great day of basketball, we had kids come from Birmingham and Northampton. I think the good things that we are doing here at NULC with basketball it’s starting to be talked about and that’s a good thing. I will continue to give the youth great coaching and hopefully get the kids playing basketball at a higher level”
