Video: Inside John Amaechi’s ProCamp

By Sam Neter on August 29, 2011

Last season Manchester’s junior programme was one of the most successful in the country, winning titles with the Under 14, 15, and 16 boys, whilst getting every age group (males and females) to the final fours. This success is no doubt down to the hardworking staff led by Joe Forber in Manchester, but also in part, says John Amaechi, attributed to the first summer of ProCamp; a three week intensive camp put together for serious basketball players only.

Last week I took a trip to the Amaechi Basketball Centre, Manchester, for the second annual ProCamp to take a look what goes on behind closed doors.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
