OBCA

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT:
Coach Tondrell Durham: McGuinness HS

First of all, I would like to thank the membership of the OBCA for allowing me the opportunity to become president. In addition, I would like to thank David Day for his work and time as the out-going OBCA president. October 1st is around the corner and we all have basketball things going through our basketball minds. I always create a basketball check-list for myself that I try to use going into October 1st.

1. What do I want to accomplish on October 1st?
2. Do I have enough players in the gym to accomplish those things?
3. What drills are important for the first day of practice?
4. Freshman: Non-football players: How much do I give them?
5. Conditioning: What’s enough for the 1st day of practice?

Good luck this season to all the members of the OBCA. If you know of a coach that is not an OBCA member, please speak with that individual because the
OBCA deserves to have every head coach and assistant included in its membership.

The Oklahoma City Thunder is proud to host the Oklahoma Basketball Coaches Association (OBCA) Fall Clinic on Saturday, Sept. 21, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We hope you’ll join us for this event at the Chesapeake Energy Arena for an opportunity to learn first-rate tactics and strategies to develop and advance your team from the Thunder coaching staff, as well as other great keynote speakers from around the country.
