Tigers offer basketball camp for kids

The Fayette County

High School basketball team will host its second session

of the Fayette Tiger Basketball camp July 10-14.

Proceeds

will go to support the basketball program at Fayette

County High School.

"The

first session of our camp was one of the best we have

ever had," Coach Keith Louthan reports. "The

campers showed great enthusiasm and a willingness to

learn."

The camp is

designed to teach fundamentals and a love for the game of

basketball through drills, individual instruction and

team-oriented competition. The day camp runs from 9 a.m.

to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday, culminating with

Family Day Friday, 9 a.m. to noon.

"Family

Day has been a big hit with the campers as we put family

members and volunteers through the pace of a typical

day," explains Louthan.

The camp

staff consists of Andre Flynn and Brent Jackson, both

assistant coaches at Fayette County High School, many

former players and current Fayette County Tigers from the

boys and girls teams. "We always work hard to make

the week special for each camper," says David

Chambers of the Tigers.

There is

still room for additional campers for the July 10-14

camp. Phone FCHS at 770-460-3540 or Louthan at
