WHILE MOST kids are
going to camp this

summer to
paddle around in
canoes and make
leather wallets, there is
a group of youngsters
on the North Shore
slapping balls on hard
wooden floors’ or
hitting them over nets
with their hands.

They'll be attending the All-
Star Basketball and
Volleyball Camps, being
offered by Dan Miscisco at
various locations on the
North Shore, getting top-
notch instruction in their
respective sport.

Miscisco, author of In-
novative Basketball, has
been running the camps for
12 years now, and has
managed to attract some top
coaches, including Bob

swim,

-Mohnski, recently appointed

U.B.C. basketball coach and
former coach of the Argyle
Pipers.

More than 600 boys and
girls have attended the
camps, which, according to
Miscisco, are fun but em-
phasize sound = skill
development.

The main idea, he says, is
to form a positive attitude
towards excellence. Par-
ticipants learn what is
needed to be = successful,
namely hard work and
commitment.

There are three basketball
camps, one for rookies, a
junior and a senior camp,
with varying times for all
three

The rookie camp is for
students entering Grades 6
to 8, and has a heavy em-
phasis on the basics. Con-
siderable time is spent on
contests.

At the junior level, for
those entering Grades 9 and
10, skills and scrimmaging

are stressed, while the super
senior camps stress team-
work, involve ~ considerable
scrimmaging and feature a
major ~ competitive final
evening.

The volleyball camps are
also divided imto rookie,
junior and senior. Some of
the topics covered include

conditioning, setting,
bumping, serving,
TesSi of spiking and

blocking, digging, diving,
rolling. and offensive and
defensive play patterns.

The volicyball camps are
for girls only, while both
boys and girls camps are
held for basketball.

The five day sessions are
three and a half hours in
length and cost $45. The
final basketball sessions start
August 16, while there are
two more volleyball sessions,
August 16 and August 23.

For further information
call D. Downie, days at 929-
5411, or Dan isci
evenings at 263-5206.
