South Suburban to Host Basketball Camps in June
The South Suburban College Basketball program is accepting registrations for its summer camps in June.
There will be two camps: an All-Skills Basketball Camp June 20-23 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and a Championship Shooting Camp from June 27-30 from 1-4 p.m. at the SSC Fitness Center. The camps are designed for Boys and Girls ages 7-17, and will be directed by Head Coach John Pigatti and players from the 2011Bulldog basketball team.
The cost of the Shooting Camp is $55 and the All-Skills camp is $95, with a special price of $125 for both camps.
Campers will need shorts, basketball shoes, and a T-shirt or practice uniform. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase every day of the camps. The main goal of these camps is to provide each individual with an opportunity to become a better player and to have some fun along the way. In order to accomplish these goals, the emphasis will be on the fundamentals of basketball.
Pigatti brings more than 20 years of college coaching experience from a well-rounded background. He was also the head coach of the Five Star Basketball Post Development Camp where he instructed several top 100 high school players in the country. He received the NJCAA Division II Region IV-A Coach of the Year Award in his first three seasons as SSC’s Head Coach.
