EVENT REVIEW
Posted September 20, 2007
(Atlanta, GA)
The 20007 SEBA Atlanta All-Star Shootout
held this past Saturday was a complete success. The 5th
Annual event, held at Oglethorpe University, was at full capacity
with 120 players participating in the camp. Talented prospects
from throughout the entire state of Georgia, as well as players
from Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, and Louisiana competed in the
event. Twenty-Eight (28) College programs from throughout the
Southeastern Region were in attendance throughout the day to
evaluate prospective recruits.
The Shootout featured a full day of
basketball action. The event began with all players participating
in fundamental drills stations conducted by some of the states
top high school and travel ball coaches. All players then competed
in three (3) full court 5-on-5 scrimmage games with their
respective teams throughout the afternoon and early evening. The
final event of the day were the Underclassman and Senior All-Star
games.
We want to extend thanks to all of the High
School and AAU coaches throughout Georgia and the entire Southeast
who supported the event. We also want to send special thanks to
Joe Goydish (Walton High), Don Hurlburt (Etowah High), Donnie
Woods (South Georgia Kings), Jerome Stutchen (Niceville High, FL)
and Mark Edwards for their time and efforts in working with the
players in the skills stations. We also would like to thank Justin
Young from Rivals, Carl Rush for his assistance; and last but not
least, much appreciation goes out to Coach Phil Ponder and the
Oglethorpe University Basketball program for their support.

EVENT REVIEW
Updated October 4, 2006
(Atlanta, GA)
The 2006 SEBA Atlanta All-Star Shootout
held this past Saturday at Oglethorpe University was a complete
success. The event, which was at full capacity with over 100
players, featured talented prospects from throughout Georgia, as
well as players from Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi.
College programs from throughout the Southeast were in
attendance throughout the day to evaluate prospective recruits.
The Shootout featured a full day of
basketball action. The event began with all players
participating in fundamental drills stations conducted by some
of Georgias top high school coaches. Following the skill
stations, the players in attendance were treated to a terrific
guest speech by Veteran NBA Coach Dick Helm. Coach Helms talk
focused on self discipline, goal setting, and accountability.
Next, the players competed in three (3) full court 5-on-5
scrimmage games with their respective teams throughout the
afternoon and early evening. The final event of the day was the
various Underclassman and Senior All-Star games.
We want to extend thanks to all of the High
School and AAU coaches throughout Georgia and beyond who helped
support the event. Additionally, we want to send a special
thanks to Coach Joe Goydish (Walton High), Roger Kvam (Cherokee
High), Coach Joe Dix and Coach Davenport (East Hall High), Don
Hurlburt (Etowah High), and Gerald Alford (Georgia Ballers AAU)
for their time and efforts in working with the players as well
as Coach Phil Ponder and the Oglethorpe University Basketball
program for their support.
