LYCOMING COLLEGE ANNOUNCES SCHEDULE FOR 2001 GIRLS’ BASKETBALL CAMPS

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Lycoming College head women’s basketball coach Christen Ditzler will host two basketball camps for girls this summer. The first will be a junior high individual camp running June 17-20. The second will be a team camp running July 15-18.

The junior high camp is open to all girls entering grades 3-9. The goal of the staff at the camp is to teach individual fundamentals and incorporate these techniques into a team concept. A daily system of teaching stations will stress basics through advanced skills within the individual player’s level of ability. Players will be grouped according to age and ability. Emphasis will be directed to teaching one-on-one and three-on-three skills, leading into five-on-five play.

The team camp is open to any varsity or junior varsity high school team. The camp will feature competition between highly successful teams and instruction from knowledgeable, experienced coaches. All teams will have the opportunity to play a full slate of games during the week.

The camp will be under the direction of Joe Bressi, District Athletics Director for Central Dauphin School District, and Christen Ditzler, head coach of the women’s basketball program at Lycoming College. Also on the staff are Lycoming assistants, Robyn Flaherty and Kathy Loy. For more information on the camp, contact Christen Ditzler at (570) 321-4261 or Joe Bressi at (717) 545-4703 ext. 253.
