At our “Starting Five” basketball clinic this past Sunday we were fortunate enough to have former collegiate national champion at Villanova University and professional basketball player Chuck Everson there to speak about post play.  It is not often that post play comes up at a clinic and to be able to have someone of that magnitude there to speak about it and break it down for almost three hours was fantastic.  Over the course of the three hour basketball clinic, Everson spoke about every aspect of post play imaginable.  From what to do before you had the ball, how to receive the ball, what to do with the ball once you received it, even how to play the post within the concept of an offense.  It was truly an incredible presentation that was devoted to anyone, and I do mean anyone that was willing to post up.  As a matter of fact, in the beginning of the clinic Chuck Everson spoke to the entire group and mentioned that players do not have to be extremely tall to be effective in the post.  He says that anyone can score in the post as long as they want the ball. Wanting the ball, is one of his four keys to post play that he he mentions in the following video. Have a look to find out the other three.
