Always be shooting.
Like a gunslinger stalking the dusty streets of the Old West, the basketball sharpshooter needs to be quick on the trigger.
Offering their help is Pro Shot Shooting, which hopes to return to Coupeville High School in May for another clinic.
A clinic in the fall drew 60+ Wolf players (girls and boys), and a lot of the lessons learned helped the CHS girls squad roll to a third straight undefeated Olympic League season.
While the first clinic was an intensive six-hour program, the follow-up clocks in at a tidy three hours.
Cost is $25 per player and a minimum of 20 players need to be signed up to make the magic happen.
The clinic is open to CHS and CMS students in grades 6-12 and would be held Sunday, May 7 from 1-4 PM in the high school gym.
If interested, players or parents need to contact Wolf girls hoop coach David King at dking@coupeville.k12.wa.us by April 18.
Once they’ve hit the 20-Wolf cut-off and guaranteed the clinic, athletes will get a link where they can preregister and pay.
Players should plan on bringing their own basketball. If they don’t have one, alert Coach King in your email.
The clinic will feature shooting technique review, followed by shooting off the dribble and shooting off the catch.
“This is an opportunity for all players that attended the original clinic in the fall to come back in and get more instruction,” King said. “A great refresher.”
“It’s also a great opportunity for players that couldn’t attend the original to come in and get some instruction this spring,” he added. “If you want to improve your shooting form, jump at this chance.”
