Lady Eagles Basketball Camp Ends

“We keep it basic but make it somewhat challenging depending on the age and skill of the camper,” said East Jackson girls basketball coach Amy Larimer. “We also include competitions such as ball handling, hot shot (shooting competition), jump rope and free throw.”

Larimer said a kids’ camp night will be held during the season, with the hope that all of the campers will return.

Several Lady Eagles helped Larimer with the camp.

“It is really great to see my players make a connection with the younger kids that will eventually be a part of our program,” Larimer said. “As a new school, creating that connection is essential in building a program.”

Larimer said 25 girls attended the camp this year, as opposed to 40 last year.

“I want the numbers to be higher, but we will continue to work on building it,” she said.
