Nate Mast/Parkland Basketball
Youth Academy
Ages 6-14 (boys and girls)
The Champaign Park District and Nate Mast proudly announce the second annual Nate Mast
Parkland Basketball Academy hosted at the newly renovated, state of the art, Parkland College
Gymnasium. The academy will offer individualized instruction in basketball fundamentals for
all levels of talent. Campers develop several skills including shooting, ball handling, passing,
dribbling, defensive positioning, and footwork. Advanced instruction will include setting and
using different types of screens, offensive techniques to get open and score, and defensive
techniques for guarding on and off the ball. Different than most camps, the academy will offer
an all inclusive look at a basketball program including a ‘chat’ session to help young, student-
athletes with issues on recruiting, strength training, and player development. In addition to the
instruction, campers will participate in several skill contests including layup, free throw, and hot
shot contests, along with competitive 3-on-3, 4-on-4, or 5-on-5 games. The goal of the camp
is to build a strong foundation in all areas of basketball that will give each camper the best
chance to improve their skills while having a great time learning. Each player gets a t-shirt.
Parkland Coach Nate Mast brings over 7 years of coaching experience at major basketball
programs including Kansas and Illinois. He has coached over a dozen college athletes who have
went on to play in the NBA. From his experiences, he has broken down the essential fundamen-
tal skills that are necessary for young athletes to master in order to help them get to the next
level of their game. The academy offers an opportunity to learn these basic fundamentals, as
well as some intermediate and advanced techniques used in basketball, while still maintaining
a fun environment for kids.
