Gilman Street Basketball

Hi all,
Gilman Street Basketball Club is proud to announce multiple opportunities for your child to take their game to another level. We have added a second session with Tony Staffiere, a new training series with Paul Vachon, and two post play clinics with Mason Griffin! These clinicians are all highly regarded at their skill and are excited to offer their knowledge to GSBC participants.
Keep in mind the clinics all have limited space and are filled on a first come basis, so don't delay!

1) Post Play Clinics
Gilman Street Basketball Club is proud to announce its fall clinic series beginning September 18th with an intense post play clinic taught by Thomas College's Mason Griffin. Mason was a standout post player at Mt. Ararat HS and his moves around the hoop allowed him to be extremely efficient in spite being undersized at his position. Mason has gone on to coach at several levels and has impressed many seasoned coaches with his style and effectiveness regardless of his age.
GSBC is happy to offer this clinic at just $100 for six nights, nine total hours, Mondays and Thursdays, 7-8:30pm, Sept. 18th - Oct. 5th. It is open to girls and boys, grades 7th-12th. There is a limit of 10 players and it will fill up quickly, so please don't delay. If you are not sure, we will hold your spot for 48 hours to confirm.

A second Advanced Post Play Clinic will be held at GSBC Mondays and Thursdays, 7-8:30pm, Oct. 30th - Nov. 16th.
The cost is just $100 for six nights, nine total hours and is open to girls and boys, grades 7th-12th.
