The 2020 International Pro-Am Basketball Officials Camp/Clinic to be held in conjunction with Delaware Valley USA Sports - National Pro Am City Leagues Championship Tournament.
The camp dates have been set for April 27, 2020 - April 30, 2020, which the National Championship Basketball Tournament will follow on April 30, 2020 - May 3, 2020. The camp consist of classroom sessions, intense floor workout and exercises with training tape sessions.
Several guest speakers will be in attendance. We have been very fortunate to have NBA Finals Officials, Legends and Rookies as guest speakers each year; this year will be no different. We will post updates on the website as we confirm who will be in attendance as guest speakers for the 2020 camp.
Officials will be selected to work the 2020 National Championship Tournament based on their classroom performances and floor training. We teach only NBA rules and mechanics. The play level is high and very intense. You will be officiating adults that know how to play the game, and not AAU teams. Teams from all over the United States consists of top overseas, former top collegiate and NBA players. The teams are playing for cash prizes, so the competition will be of high caliber. This is what makes this camp unique and different than any other camp that you have attended.
"We take your investment in your time and money seriously."
Our staffs' goals are to maximize each Camper to be the best Basketball Official at what ever level they aspire to work. The camp is not for the "faint of heart", so acceptance of criticism is key. We give you the best tools to put you in a better position to get to the next level.
Some great officials who have come through our program includes:
