The 2010 Sharp Shooter Girls Basketball Camp will be held this summer at Austin High School and is designed for both the first time camper as well as the player with previous camp and playing experience.

The camp will emphasize the development of each individuals basketball fundamentals, administered with a positive and fun approach to learning. A lot of emphasis will be given to shooting technique and learning offensive skills.
