In 2008, the Paul Webb All Star Basketball Camp celebrates 44 years coaching area basketball campers!

Since 1965, Coach Paul Webb has been successfully instructing thousands of boys and girls, ages 7-17, to become the most complete basketball players they can be.

The day camps are located at area high schools and middle schools with two annual week-long summer residential team camps held at Randolph-Macon College in Ashland, Virginia.

Each of the camps feature special guests along with top high school coaches, and instruction from former ODU basketball coach Paul Webb (at left in photo), and coach Eddie Webb (right in photo), President of the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame.


AT THE CAMPS
Attendees of Coach Webb's camps "have a ball" as well as learn many of the fundamentals of basketball. Harold Deane, former camper and All-ACC guard for the University of Virginia remembers, "I learned a lot from the camps, but I wanted to come back because of the fun I had as a camper. Coach Webb knows how to teach and entertain. He emphasizes the importance of fundamentals, teamwork and good sportsmanship, but he motivates and really cares about the kids," said Deane.

The camps have been successful because Webb is associated with a reputation for organization and integrity. He has maintained connections with some of the biggest ACC and NBA stars.

THE FUNDAMENTALS
The Paul Webb All Star Basketball Camp stresses the fundamentals of basketball. Each minute of every day is planned in advance. Ball handling, defense, rebounding, shooting, passing, free throws, and the rules of the game are all covered among other topics at each camp location. "I just think these camps are a great experience for every kid," said Webb. "The kids are no different than they were at the first camp in '65. They're still enthusiastic and eager to learn."
