Renowned basketball skills coach holds Manila camp in May

Elite basketball trainer, motivational speaker and skills coach Ganon Baker is coming to Manila in May.

The world-famous coach will bring his sought-after training camp all the way from Florida to the capital of this hoops-crazy country from May 16 to 20.

Baker, who has also worked closely with Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Amar’e Stoudemire, Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant and Vince Carter, has been traveling the world to conduct similar camps.

The Ganon Baker Basketball Camp Manila 2016 is in partnership with local skills coach Eric Bañes.

Coaches Mon Jose and Aris Dimaunahan will assist Bañes and Ganon Baker in the five-day long camp to be held at Ronac Center from 1pm-4pm. Players and coaches may register at [email protected] or call (0917) 809-0067 for more information.

The initial staging of the camp is targeting young players boys and girls, 12 to 18 years old, but is also open to amateur and professional coaches.

“This is a rare opportunity for coaches and players to take advantage of because people spend thousands of dollars to go to Florida to learn these basketball lessons from the master himself. Now they can save on travel expenses, board and lodging and other incidentals because he is coming to Manila. Training with Ganon Baker dramatically changes player performance and coaching approaches,” Bañes said.
