Zalgiris Kaunas to hold basketball camp for youth 0

Zalgiris starts the summer with a new project that is targeted towards the younger generation of basketball players. Between the 24^th of June and 3^rd of July, the Lithuanian Champions will be hosting the Zalgiris Youth in Kaunas.

Youth between the age of 16 and 20 who regularly play basketball or are going to basketball schools, are invited to register for the 10-day camp. Zalgiris youth system coaches Arvydas Gronskis, Vytautas Pliauga, Darius Sirtautas, Tautvydas Sabonis and Domantas Tautkus will be running the practices, with visits from Zalgiris’ main team players and coaches also scheduled.

“It’s always nice to get up close to the young basketball players and share our knowledge and experience with them. The camp will provide them with knowledge, but most importantly, will help them improve their skills and understanding on the court,” – said Zalgiris-2 coach Arvydas Gronskis.

The camp will include practices without accommodation and food. Need be, the club can offer rooms in Kaunas’ hotels for an extra fee. The practices will take place in Kaunas, in the Zalgiris basketball school and Zalgiris practice facilities.

The price for Zalgiris Youth Camp is 300 Eur, and participants are invited to register until the 15^th of June. Take note that the number of participants is limited. You can register here: https://bit.ly/ZYC-2020. If you have any questions, please contact gediminas@zalgiris.lt.
