BWBA: New Basketball Academy
This Sunday @ Moorpark JC--(Jan. 2, 2002)

Many players over the years have attended Bob Gottlieb's BWBA Academy workouts at various venues in and around Orange County.  For the past few years, Bob has told us that he's had plans to start up the same type of Sunday workouts in the Ventura-San Fernando Valley region, but for one reason or another, it's just never happened.   We heard from Gottlieb the other day, and he asked us to pass along the information about his new BWBA Academy, which will begin this Sunday, January 6, 2002 at Moorpark College, starting at 12:00 noon.

If the workouts are anything like those we've seen firsthand at other BWBA Academy sessions over the years, they will provide an excellent workout particularly for both younger players and those who feel they're not getting enough work done during the week with their high school teams.  The focus in these workouts is on fundamental skills-- for guards its on ball-handling, defense and shooting;  for big men, it's on footwork, rebounding and post moves, and for everyone, it's about overall conditioning, strength and speed work.  Say whatever you will about Bob Gottlieb, but most people familiar with AAU ball will tell you that he's an excellent game coach, a pretty good judge of talent, and he assembles some very competitive teams that play hard and tough at many of the best summer tournaments, including the Big Time and most of the Double Pump events.

Bob also runs a service assisting players with their recruitment, but that's not what this Academy is about;  there may be some tangential benefits to a player's recruiting, but the overall focus in the Academy sessions is on basketball, pure and simple.

If you have further questions about the workouts and Bob Gottlieb's new BWBA Ventura-SFV Basketball Academy at Moorpark College, feel free to give him at call (714) 997-0380  or you can reach him by e-mail for further details.
