All-Access with Oakland U Basketball

Oakland University head basketball coach Greg Kampe is a past speaker at the COBA Can-Am On-Court Basketball Coaching Clinic - Here are some of his clips: 1-4 Ballscreen Stagger Set and 1-4 Ballscreen Set (Note: This year's clinic is June 3-4, 2011 in Windsor, ON and includes Pete Gillen)

This video provides an inside look at Coach Kampe and his basketball program. Coach Kampe is an excellent teacher. I have had the chance to watch his team's practice. They are very organized and he is demanding without being demeaning. His team is currently 17-9 and in 1st place in the Summit League. They have a great chance to do some damage in the NCAA tournament as they have already beaten Tennessee and had a close game vs. Michigan State.

Can-Am coaching clinic a success

Following in the success and tradition of previous Can-Am coaching clinics, the 2010 clinic has now wrapped up, been enjoyed and appreciated by plenty of coaches. Special thanks to ALL of the attending coaches, especially those that brought friends and traveled great distances! Once again, we are grateful to the many friends and supporters that promoted the clinic and reinforced the values of sharing.

This years guest presenters, coaches Dave Odom, Don Casey, and Greg Kampe, gave all of the coaches tremendous content, shared several stories (illustrating examples of what is required to be a better player at any level), and demonstrated their expertise with wonderful passion. Thanks again to all three of them for their support and willingness to share. When combined with Coach Oliver's session of practice drills and individual workouts, the overall clinic provided a fantastic opportunity for learning. Stay tuned to the blog, Twitter, and Facebook fan pages for continued learning from the clinic.

Final thanks are owed to the University of Windsor Athletic Dept. and staff, valued clinic sponsors, COBA, host hotel (Holiday Inn Select, Windsor), Windsor Lancer coaches and players (the men and women that worked very hard on court both days), drivers of the guest coaches, and countless volunteers that helped along the way. Next year's clinic is only 12 months away, and the work has already begun!

Coaches are ready to teach

Final preparations for the Can-Am On-Court Basketball Coaching Clinic have been completed. One week from today, the fun begins - Friday June 4th at 5pm. To say the three clinicians - coaches Dave Odom, Don Casey, Greg Kampe - are ready to go is an understatement. They are pumped, and looking forward to sharing as much as possible.

Imagine how keen Coach Don Casey (Temple of Zones) is right now! He's watching Phoenix cause LA all sorts of difficulty because they are playing great zone D. As Coach Casey said yesterday, "the stars are aligned" perfectly, it's a great time to teach concepts and principles of zone defense. He went on to say that "regardless of the outcome of the series, Phoenix has shown that zone defense should be part of the defensive package for all teams."

Clinic attendance is growing daily. Coaches are signing up with friends and saving money. If you plan to attend, go to the clinic site to see details, and get the form. Given the timing, please just bring your form and payment with you but email cobacamp@hotmail.com so that your name is on the advance list (for prizes, free lunch, etc). Looking forward to seeing you!

Coaching clinic in 15 days

Two weeks tomorrow. That is when three terrific presenters will be sharing their knowledge with attending coaches at the annual Can-Am On-Court Basketball Coaching Clinic. Coaches Dave Odom, Don Casey, and Greg Kampe have announced their respective topics and are keen to get out on the court and work hard for you June 4th and 5th.

Attendance is growing every day, mostly by word of mouth - special thanks to all those spreading the news! The coaches' social is set for the Friday night and is all organized. The host hotel has reserved many rooms for visiting coaches but only has a few remaining at the great low clinic rate. Lunch on Saturday has been ordered. The draw prizes (happening all weekend) have been boxed and are ready to be awarded.

A few coaches have indicated that they are only able to attend on Saturday. Not a problem - there's an even lower rate for just one day. Contact Coach Oliver for the rate and he'll make sure you are on the registration list. The learning will be tremendous, and the sharing even greater - don't miss this great opportunity!

Coach Greg Kampe of Oakland University is the most recent addition to the roster of Can-Am On-Court Basketball Coaching Clinic presenters. The clinic is just over four weeks away (June 4th-5th), with the first speaker set to grab the microphone at 5pm on the Friday night.

This spring, as the team prepared for yet another trip to the NCAA tourney, an informative article regarding Coach Kampe and the Oakland program was written by Tom Markowski of The Detroit News. In it, Tom outlines the vision and dedication of Coach Kampe, as well as a funny story about Oakland's first trip to the NCAA's in 2005. Sign up for the clinic and see Coach Kampe work his craft in person.
