List of 6 frequently asked questions.

  • PGC Summer Camp Registration - REGISTRATION OPEN

    PGC Basketball teaches players the uncommon skills, habits and mindset that coaches at the high school, NCAA, NBA and WNBA level mostly look at when deciding who they want playing on their team.
    Players who attend PGC learn how to “think the game” so they can separate themselves from every other player on the court, which leads to things like:
    • Getting more playing time
    • Becoming the player coach trusts most
    • Getting more attention from college coaches
    • Winning more championships
    • And, much more…
    If this sounds like something you want for your child, here’s what you need to know…
    Because of their popularity and limited space, PGC sets a date and time when they begin accepting registrations each year for camp. This year, that date was Monday, Jan 29… and when registration opened, over 5,000 players registered in the first few days.
    So needless to say, many of their Summer courses are going to SELL OUT. Click this link to register now!

    (Last year, more than 100 courses sold out across North America)
