MISSION STATEMENT:

The Pete Newell Tall Women's Basketball Camp goal is to continue to do what Pete Newell did his whole life-to teach the fundamentals and footwork of the game of basketball to young players. The ability to read a defense and react to the defender's position is a key component of the Pete Newell method. The part to whole teaching method is used beginning with a 1 on none to 1 on 1, 2 on 2, and so on.

CAMP HISTORY:

The Pete Newell Tall Women's Basketball Camp began in 2001 at California State University, Monterey Bay. Pete Newell and Bill McClintock had talked for years about starting a women's camp just like the Big Man's Camp Pete Newell had been doing for 25 years. When McClintock returned to coaching at CSUMB the dream became a reality. Now after a decade of teaching the list of alums is impressive.

The staff includes basketball names like Ann Meyers of UCLA, a four time All-American and basketball Hall of Famer, Pete Newell Jr., a highly successful Santa Cruz California high school coach, as well as Bill McClintock, Christen Roper, Wendy Anae, Mandy Carver, Ruthie Bolton, Chloe Kerr and Nadia Parker.
