Gerry Pollard Basketball Camp

[budjones05]

Is anybody planning on attending Gerry Pollard's Basketball Camp this year?

[Ref_in_Alberta]

Where is it being held and when is it?

[budjones05]

It usually during the weekend of fathers day and it's in Springfield, MO at the Missouri State Campus.

I'm interested in going, Do you have more information about the camp?

[Ref_in_Alberta]

The reason I ask is that Pollard is my last name as well...

[budjones05]

The info doesn't come out until like March or April. I enjoy myself and the price is excellent.

Yes, I plan on attending his camp again this year.

Does anyone know where the Pollard camp is this year? Did anyone go to it last year, and if so, how was it?

We will not know until around February or March. I would assume he will have similar camps in the places he did last year.

If I used that as criteria, I'd have to look for a camp named after someone with the last name of Weaselpants.

That was not the only one he had. His big one or the one he advertised for the GLVC, was in Louisville, Kentucky. I do not know if how this compared to the one in Missouri, but it was pretty big.

Yeah I saw it was there last year, but I didn't know if it was there every year. Seems like I've seen it advertised as being in St. Louis before too. Springfield works better for me anyway. I'm thinking about going this year.

I've never been to Gerrys camp but have talked with him about it at some MVC camp stuff. Its for younger officials looking to advance at whatever level they want to advance too. I've heard its one of the best around (Souther Missouri area) for guys to go in and get straight forward answeres and try and develop their game with not all of the presure of the big name d1 refs watching.

If you live in Florida the JB Caldwell camp is very good. It is especially designed for newer people It is in Daytona in july. JB is a hoot and has lots of stories and a great support staff.

I got to work one game last summer with Eric Lewis (NBA) doing the evaluation,, what at thrill. He said I was NBA material, I think he meant fodder on the floor!!
