Camp Starlight is very proud to introduce our new Head of Basketball, Diego.
A college player at West Virginia University who then spent six years playing overseas in Argentina, Africa and Australia, coaching the sport was simply a natural progression when he called time on his professional career. He has worked in numerous schools and colleges, from Middle School through to Morehead State University, KY where he was a Division One Coach. He currently spends the winter season providing individual instruction for kindergarten through 10th Grade in the D.C. Metro area. Diego comes to camp excited to be able to put some fresh ideas into the program and he is supported by a talented team of college and former college players.
This summer, basketball is going to be based on the FUNdamentals of the sport – passing, ball handling, shooting, defense, footwork and rebounding. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, his coaching sessions will be adjusted to ensure you receive the instruction that meets your goals. For those who want to take things further there are travel and home teams to compete in the Wayne County league, plus numerous intra camp games. You’ll also have the opportunity to take part in skill based competitions and fun team games, all designed to improve your skills to the maximum but ensuring you have a good time whilst you do so.
Get ready to, “Play Hard, Play Together, Play to Get Better!”
