Join the Pirates and NIKE for Summer Camp!

The East Carolina women's basketball program will offer two Nike Basketball Camps this summer, according to an announcement from head coach Heather Macy Monday.

Macy will serve as the host for the camps as well as provide instruction. The Complete Skills session, scheduled for June 20-24, is for girls ages 6-15 while the Elite Camp, slated for Aug. 5-7, is open to ages 10-18.

In attending the camps, players will enjoy and receive:

  • An 8:1 player to coach ratio

  • Daily emphasis on fundamental development, team play and more

  • Official NIKE Camp T-shirt

  • NIKE Camp Certificate

  • NIKE Camp Yearbook and other NIKE prizes

  • A handwritten coaches evaluation

    Established in 1996, the Nike Basketball Camps provide focused, intensive training that is essential to improvement for all skill levels. Every facet of the game is covered with an emphasis on fundamentals to help players become valuable team members. At each location, campers are broken into groups with other players of similar age, abilities and goals. Each camp staff does their best to advance players to the next level, keeping in consideration each camper's experience and desire to improve.

    Macy is the director of the East Carolina women's basketball camps and has been a featured speaker at numerous clinics around the nation - most recently this fall at the NIKE Championship Basketball Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. She has also been invited to present at the same event this spring in Wisconsin.

    Recapping Alumni Weekend

    We had a great time this past weekend reconnecting with all of our alumni. These women are responsible for laying the foundation of what East Carolina Women's Basketball is today.

    We hope you enjoy these two videos of Coach Macy addressing the large gathering at the alumni social as well as a great tribute to the past put together by Coach Hayes! Also check out some of the pictures from Sunday's halftime tribute. Thanks again to all in attendance. You definitely helped inspire us to play a great game and beat UCF!
