2003 Coaching Retreat Recap
Ottawa, KS

"Win the Tip!" 2003 Basketball Coaches Retreat convened May 30th-31st on the campus of Ottawa University.  This gathering of friends and basketball minds produced numerous discussions on the game we love.  The attendees were influenced by Dr. Frederick's opening discussion on leadership and enlightened by Rob Miller's presentation on the "7 Essentials of Great Teams."  Coach Ron Slaymaker finished Friday evening by providing everyone with a "model" of what dedication to the game is all about.

Discussions lasted late into the night, with many coaches sharing and testing their savvy with Coach Herb Welling (Five-Star Basketball), a guru on team play and intricate details of numerous offensive systems.  Saturday was a day of open discussions led by Aaron Christian's (Butte College) breakdown of the Creighton Offense and Cam Schuknecht's (Wartburg College) presentation on weight training and conditioning.  Coach Shim (Los Angeles) enlightened us through the eyes of a 44-year veteran coach.  Nick Totta (Avila University) was the coach with the question, facilitating other coaches to share their thoughts and improve his own.  Jeff Willms (London Leopards) provided information on individual player development techniques for 1 on 1 play and Mike Cole (Bozeman High School) gave us a look into some of the successful drills he has used in leading his team's to 5 State Championships.
