“At PGC, Dalton learned how to “think the game” and be a student of the game. All aspects of Dalton’s game took off after attending camp… His playing time increased. His points per game increased. His rebounds increased. But most importantly, he walked away a better human being and with the understanding that how he played in games, didn’t define who he was as a person. Listen to Dalton’s story to learn more today…”

PGC Basketball Testimonial

“Brooke, a three-time PGC grad, transformed her game and mindset at PGC. Before, mistakes shook her confidence, altering how she played. But Coach Dustin’s lesson on staying unruffled—thinking like a goldfish with a short memory—changed everything. She learned to stay composed, bounce back fast, and not let one bad play determine the rest of her performance. Now, whether finishing strong off two feet or facing challenges in life, she carries the confidence and intensity of a PGC gym wherever she goes.”

“William used to get very little playing time as one of the younger players on his team because his lack of confidence led him to play timid basketball. He was too worried about what the older kids would think about him and he was afraid to screw up. Luckily, he attended PGC one summer and learned a few little secrets that almost instantly transformed him into a leader and team captain on his varsity team!”

“10x PGC Grad, Skylar Smith, was a natural when it came time to pick up the game of basketball but she struggled with the mental side of the game and found it challenging to carry over her performance in practice to game situations. And for the life of her, she couldn’t figure out why. But after attending PGC multiple times, and paying close attention during the classroom and film sessions, her mindset shifted and her confidence skyrocketed. And ultimately, it was her mindset that helped her get the opportunity to play at the next level.”

“6x PGC Grad, Tanyr, like so many other players her age, used to really really lack confidence in herself, especially in games. She’d put in the hard work at practice and get in extra reps on her own… but when it came to crunch time in games, she’d freeze up and get really, really nervous. But after attending PGC, she came out of her shell as both a person and a player, and the rest as they say, is history…”

“Back in high school, Sean was a decent player but he never played a significant role on his team because he was so short… But Once Sean attended PGC and learned how to ‘think the game’, his decision-making sped up, while the game itself began to slow down. And for the first time in his life, he felt in control with the ball in his hand. Sean went on to become the most decorated point guard of all time at Lake Forest College.”

“Growing up in Hawaii and being the top ranked player in the state, Kam was looking for an experience that could give him the mental edge in college. And boy did he ever find that at PGC… At camp, Kam was fully immersed in a college-like camp experience where he discovered how to be a leader on and off the court, and use his leadership voice to impact others. As sort of a shy guy who was used to keeping to himself, Kam was uncomfortable at first, but quickly learned that effective communication is a must-have habit if you want to play at the next level! “

PGC Basketball Testimonial“I wanted to drop you a note and tell you how impressed I was with every aspect of the program. From your leadership to your instructors, I believe you have made a positive impact both on my son as well as me. I will admit to coming to PGC as a coach and thinking I wouldn’t learn much. I have been to a lot of “camps” in my time and thought this would primarily be good for my son. There are not many times that I think I got more than I paid for, but as far as I am concerned you couldn’t charge enough for the experience we both had. I believe it will change my son’s life as well as my own. I am going to use SCHAPE with all of my teams and we have instituted its principals in my own home!”

“Zach went to a tiny, tiny school of just 250 kids where really the only fans in the stands were basically your Moms. He knew he had to do something to get the energy level of his teammates up and that’s what he discovered when he attended his first PGC camp with his Dad. A few years later Zach received multiple offers to play in college and he credits that to the leadership skills he learned at camp.”

“Before PGC, Claire never really realized how important it was to show up every day, even when she didn’t want to. Basketball was just a game to her before attending PGC but now it is so much more than just that.

As Claire said, if you come to PGC “you’re going to see big shifts in your game!””

I played against Kyle when I was starting at Pine Forest High School after he went to PGC for the summer before our senior season in 2011-2012. We played them at their house in Niceville, FL the 1st time and he literally scorched me and my team that night and looked flawless all night. Made all the right moves, hitting all his shots and attacking all game on offense and defense. He made me look like a fool to say the least and the year before that, I really didn’t see him playing like this. He was good but not this great. We had to make a game plan to stop him the next 2 games we played and finished 2-1 against his team but he was killing us when he got the chance. He stayed on my mind for sure but he got hurt and his team went out the playoffs early. I did my research and figured out he went to PGC to elevate his game and I’ve been following PGC ever since. It has taken my game to another level. I’ve seen and experienced the results and they are real and he is a legit baller anyone would be blessed to learn from.
This Was An Experience Unlike You Will Find Anywhere Else
I spend a lot of time with my players working on the culture of our team and now I realize that I also need to start working with them on the mental side. I loved the classroom sessions and plan to steal all those "dimes" Marke was dropping and use them in my practices. This was the most impressive camp I have ever been a part of and I loved the unique atmosphere of being an observing coach and seeing how someone like Marke coaches. I'm excited to attend a coaching clinic in the future, but this was an experience unlike you will find anywhere else.
Everything is Top Notch at PGC!
I have 5 kids. Anthony is our youngest. All of our kids played basketball and went to camps. PGC exceeded my expectations in several ways. The organization. The environment and enthusiasm from all the coaches but most of all I love that there is classroom time and film time to have them sit and learn skills that are not taught only being on the court. Lastly, the communication, in the form of daily emails to let me know what was being taught each day was amazing. I wish I had known of this camp sooner. This was our first time with PGC.
I Really Liked the Focus On Decision Making
I really liked the focus on decision making, the focus on peeking at the basket/down the floor is very key. Also, I intend to really reinforace power position with my team this year. That and Mo Stops. I think some of the open court dribbling stuff is what I will use the most. the Mo Stops/Changes, butt cutts and pullbacks are essential tools. I will also use some of the language from the classroom to talk about leadership with my players.
there Are Not Enough Words To Describe the Incredible Experience I'Ve Had At PGC Playmaker College
there are not enough words to describe the incredible experience I've had at PGC Playmaker College. the course itself was set up wonderfully and was full of pertinent information. I know the athletes had to have learned so much because I did as a coach. Specifically, I took away how to bring a spirited culture to a gym and a classroom. I also learned how to structure a practice and have gained many coaching points to bring to my athletes.
Can't Wait For Him to Attend Next Year!
What I loved about this camp, is that it was so much more than a skills camp. It taught my son how to be so much more than an athlete. He learned how to be a true leader on and off the court. Most kids his age just care about being the best shooter and making the most points, and this is the first time that he saw how that is not what makes you stand out as an athlete. I can't wait for him to attend other camps next year!
New Confidence for My Daughter
My daughter is entering her Freshman year and wanted to hone in our her skills. She only started playing basketball in 6th grade and loves the game. She learned a lot about her position as well as being a better leader than she already was. PGC has given her new confidence and drive to get out and play even more and harder. She made amazing friendships and is excited to come back for more next year!
Stretched Out of Comfort Zone in the Best Way!
The PGC camp was extremely beneficial for my two sons in that it is a multi-dimensional course experience. They received SO much more than just a traditional basketball camp can provide. They were stretched outside of their comfort zone even before drop off in that they needed to prepare for the week, pack their necessities and exercise their independent thinking while away from home.
Should Have Started Attending Sooner
Oh my she loved the camp!! We just wish she would have attended before her going into her senior year of High School. Everything she learned will benefit her not only on the court but off the court. We will highly recommend this camp to others and believe there will already be more that will attend next year from out area. Thank you for provideing her this opportunity.
Communication Was Top Notch!
From the very first interaction with PGC, which was a phone call with questions before booking, everything was top notch! All communications for preparing were timely, detailed and provided much peace of mind. Arrival and check-in was smooth and the parent meeting on day one assured us we had made a good decision and investment. Everything exceeded our expectations.
Will Definitely Try to Get All My Players to Attend
I learned so so so much over the 5 days. It makes me motivated to take what I learned and try to spread it throughout my program. I loved everything about this program at PGC they teach the kids basketball but also stuff to use throughout their life. I will definitely try and get all my player to attend this course and other courses you provide.
I Love How This Course Teaches More Than Just Basketball
I love how this course teaches so much more than just basketball. As a specific example, the lesson on handshaking and the use of it during the commitment statement presentations. This is a life skill that is invaluable to the players. Thank you for reinforcing this with my daughter as well as giving me a reminder to I still it in my players.
PGC was the highlight of my summer.
PGC was the highlight of my summer. when i first arrived, my nerves were all over the place. But as soon as i talked to the first staff member and felt all of their energy and encouragement for just being there, i felt right at home. the skills they taught on and off the court will definitely help me to be the best player and person i can be.
Re-invigorating Experience!
This experience re-invigorated my perspective. It reminded me that I’m doing some things right/well but that there is so much farther/further to go. I was inspired by the commitment to having a championship gym every time we work. I learned a ton and feel better equipped to lead my team. The progressions and content overall were excellent.
Boring Food
I felt I learned a lot about basketball and how to be a better play on the court and off but I feel the food should of changed more frequently because I felt I was eating the same thing every day.
My Life Will be Changed Forever
Overall my experience at this camp was fantastic. I am very excited about imputing all the new things I learned into my life and into basketball. And I cant stress enough the impact that the non basketball classroom sessions had on my life. From talking about nutrition to finance to leadership, my life will be forever changed.
My Son is Confident, Excited, Energized and Goal Oriented
My son came home more confident, excited, energized and goal oriented than I have ever seen him. Today he is playing in a tournament and on the Court he is the best I’ve seen him play. He is confident, making great shots, passes and his defense is outstanding. Most of all, he is so HAPPY! Thank you PGC!
He Had Fun While Learning!
This was my sons first time attending. Number one he had fun which is key to continuing a sport - you have to love it and that usually means it has to be fun. He felt it was competitive which is something other camps have lacked. He learned a lot in the classroom and was excited to show me his notes.
Taught Me How to Structure My Practices
Great teaching of the technique but more importantly teaching me how to structure practice to focus on those techniques and instill the right mindset in my players. Gamifying my practices will make a huge difference and including small-sided games into the rhythm of practice will really help
From Alaska to Washington...
After traveling alone from village in Alaska to Washington and back a different child came back. A confident ready to put the work in man. I believe PGC is beneficial for my sons future, as it is the stepping stone to what college life will be while expanding his basketball knowledge.
This Was Unlike Any Other Camp I Have Done Before
This was unlike any other camp I have done before. the classroom sessions were incredible and the gym sessions taught me things I never thought of before. For example, when faking a pass I was taught to put the hall out but at PGC I was taught to fake with my whole body.
The Perfect "I Do, We Do, You Do" Approach to Learning
It exceeded mine and my daughters expectations in so many ways! My daughter works by seeing things visually so seeing it on the film, having the coaches show her and then having her do it is the perfect "I do, we do, you do" approach that she needs to learn effectively.
Great Camp Structure for Players and Coaches
I was very impressed with the structure of the camp. The energy that Coach Matt & staff brought was very infectious throughout the week. As an observing coach I had access to everything throughout the week and felt extremely welcomed! Thanks Coach Steinbrock
I Have Been Searching For Years To Find A Program Like This
It will give me the confidence to articulate why the format is shaped in this fashion to help build shooters. I have been searching for years to find a program that broken down and explained the science of building shooter. I can't wait to put it in motion.
No AC
It was awesome I just wish the food was a little better and the dorms and gym had ac.
Inceased My Basketball IQ
It was so amazing being treated like a college athlete and having to except responsibility. Helped me with seeing the floor way better and way faster. This camp also showed me that getting out of your comfort zone is what made me feel more comfortable.
Hands Down the Best Camp I've Ever Experienced
I have been to coaching clinics all across the United States and this was hands down the best experience I have ever experienced. The learning environment, the passion, and the energy in which the director and staff attack each day is infectious.
I'm going to make my teammates better.
Coaches and staff were always there and in a way you could always rely as well as learning so much! I feel as if when I go back to my high school Im am going to be able to bring my teammates and I to the next level and be the coach on the floor
Taught Me the Importance of Not Just Playing the Game...
Taught me the importance of not only playing the game but watching the game as well and how much it impacts your game on and off the court in general. Taught me the things I sometimes already knew but to greater extent and basketball IQ levels!
PGC is a class organization.
This was my third time to attend and as always I'm fortunate to be able to attend such a class organization. I truly appreciate the experience that I receive from it. I owe the majority of my teams success to PGC. Thank y'all
Food wasn’t great, dorms were ok, basketball was great.
Food wasn’t great, dorms were ok, basketball was great.
Positive. Fun. Inclusive.
My son JJ thought that all the PGC coaches were great and learned a lot from them all. He especially enjoyed Director Rudy, who made himself very accessible to the campers and kept everything positive, fun and inclusive.
Jam Schallenberger
This camp taught me how to be a great leader, basketball player and energy giver to my teammates. I am going to be a different person (in a good way) when I walk out the door each day, both in basketball and as a person.
Developed A Winning Attitude
It made a 100% difference with Amirah playing the game. She has a winning attitude, she interact with her team on the floor, her body language is more positive and she motivates her team now vocally and hand claps.
Haigen Harrison
After Point Guard Prep, I feel differently about basketball. I used to only like basketball but now I LOVE basketball. I feel like I’m one thousand times better. All of the coaches made the experience amazing!
I've Never Seen My Child Like This!
Nathaniel was eager everyday, and locked in,I have never seen my child like this. I was rewarding to see how this camp changed his mentality of the game and his eager to be better than he was yesterday.
PGC Provided Coaching Strategies
PGC provided coaching strategies that will help my players to be the best they can be. Information is gold and a wise investment to enhance your credibility with other coaches, athletes and parents.
Great Intro to Life & Leadershipi
Great introduction of life and leadership tools as part of the basketball content. She really loved the experience, the people, and had several take-aways that she can’t wait to put into practice.
Building A Culture That Is Conducive To Winning
As a coach you always ask yourself if you are building a culture that is conducive to winning. PGC was an affirmation that I am doing those things in my program and that I am teaching the game.
Broke It Down For Me
Coach Lili broke it down for me and now I understand how to do things differently I missed a session of his to go watch her with the girls and and it just opened me up to more transparent
Incredible Camp!
The PGC experience exceeded our expectations by the friendly instructors and daily emails sent letting us know what the kids learned that day to allow us to ask them to explain it to us.
Food Not Great
Great camp. The cafe food definitely could have been better.
Best Experience Ever
My PGC camp experience was the best experience i’ve had yet. I was always pushed my teamates pushed me and believed in me to get better as a player but as well as a person and leader.
The Progression of the Camp Improves Learning!
The amount of content shared and the progressions that they are shared in through film, technique training, guided reps and live is amazing. Great way to teach the game. Thank You
It Taught Me How to Be a Great Leader
My experience was amazing. I loved it so much. It was such an eye opener to me that it’s bigger than basketball in most aspects of the game. It taught me how to be a great leader.
the Benefits Are Unreal For Myself And My Program Going On
the benefits are unreal for myself and my program going on. I learned a lot of great ways to truly teach the game of basketball and life. the classroom is extremely important.
Organized, Skillful and Great Leadership
Well organize, focus on development of the skills and fundamentals. Also promote leadership and teamwork. Amanda loves it and told me that she have the best day of her life!
Pages and Pages and Pages of Notes
The pages of notes tell the story. Between my daughter and her two friends, they combined for 86 pages of notes! I love the learning that takes place during a PGC session!
I Feel Much More Confident In My Ability To Work With Guards
I feel much more confident in my ability to work with guards because of how well the directors and coaches broke down the components of every skill and move they taught.
Always Exceed Expectations
Always exceeds expectations. So organized. Well thought out. Transferable skills from the court to life. I’ve referred several people to PGC and saw many at this camp.
PGC Proves Parents Aren't So Dumb Afterall
It was also rewarding for me in that a lot of what I’ve been telling him he also heard at PGC, and he commented on that to me, so I am not so dumb after all. Lol
PGC was even better the second time.
I had been to a PGC course before, and I knew what to expect. I was still amazed by the experience, and found that it was even more fun the second time.
Provided Great Ideas To Get Higher Roi
Provided great ideas that I can implement to get higher ROI ion the time spent with team. Also helped shape my overall approach to teaching and leading.
Excited To Introduce the Terminology To My Athletes
the course was great. It was simplified to where student athletes could comprehend and I'm excited to introduce some of the terminology to my athletes.
I Learned How To Teach A Value To the Athletes
I learned how to teach a value to the athletes and back it up with examples. then how to hold the athletes accountable to the standards they agreed to.
Left a Better Player!
I definitely learned a lot during the camp and I feel that I will leave here a better player and bring back positive skills and mentalities to my team.
Love the energy, love the competition, didn't love the food
Love the energy, love the competition, didnt love the food but loved meeting so many new friends who had the same interests as me.
Dorms are mediocre but camp is amazing!
The dorms where a little unclean but the food was good and coaches were very nice and it was fun playing with older kids
Invaluable Skills Learned
I love the self-work/growth aspect of this camp. To be able to learn the skills of gratitude and physical tricks to change ones energy is invaluable.
Makes Everyone Better
I learned so much every day and everyone at camp was just amazing how everyone supports everyone and everyone is trying to make everyone else better
I have a new commitment in life
As a result of attending PGC, I have a new commitment in life from it both as a coach but also as an individual, spouse, employee, peer, and leader.
Energy and Passion for the Game!
