RICK BOLUS’ HIGH POTENTIAL/BLUE-CHIP
2015 FALL SHOWCASE
LOUISVILLE (KY) GIRLS FALL SHOWCASE
Louisville Girls Fall Showcase
INTRODUCTION
Exposure is the key for any player in this day and age to receive a college basketball scholarship. With cutbacks in staff and budget by colleges nationwide, and fewer days to evaluate players, college coaches overlook more and more deserving players every year.
With this being the case, I hope one will consider attending the 2nd Annual High Potential Girls Basketball Fall Exposure Showcase on September 26, 2015, at Bullitt Central High School in easy-to-reach Shepherdsville, KY, off Interstate 65 at exit 117 and just 17 miles south of Louisville, KY.
The showcase could well be the avenue for you to obtain a scholarship. Each participate will play in a total of 3 games during the day. There will be team practices, stations, contests and a guest speaker. With the exception of lunch, there is no dead time during the showcase, as players are occupied with basketball related activities at all times.
Over 400 college coaches nationwide representing all levels of play will be invited to attend the showcase. A Camp Internet Report will be made available on our webpage along with internet coverage on our blog at http://basketball-camp.net/about-us/blog and Ron Harrison’s blog at www.kyprephoops.com which has almost 5,000,000 hits along with Facebook and Twitter.
Why pay $200 or more which most similar events charge when you can just pay $95 to attend the High Potential Girls Basketball Fall Exposure Showcase and get more bang for your buck.
There is a spot for you at the showcase whether you are looking to broaden your scholarship offers, get on the radar screens of college recruiters or just simply wanting to improve your game for the 2015-16 season.
Our showcase could be the "difference maker" for a player to receive a college scholarship. Contact us for a free brochure or register online at www.basketball-camp.net (click on Louisville Girls Fall Showcase). Hope to see you on September 26.

TEAM COMPETITION
There were six teams in this event designated as Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, Utah, and Wisconsin. Rick Bolus added a new concept to determine the team championship this year. Each team played three regular games and participated in several skill competitions also known as “cut-throat” competitions. The winner of each regular game was awarded two points while the winner of each skill competition received one point. Kentucky won the competition with a 2-1 record in the regular games and a total of 8.5 points over Indiana who was also 2-1 and tallied 7.5 points. Wisconsin was 3-0 in the regular games but only won one competition and finished with 7.0 points. This style was well received by the ladies and the competition was intense in all events. The Tournament MVP from Kentucky was 5-8 8th Grade Lexi Taylor Mt. Washington Middle School Mt. Washington, KY. The Tournament Runner-Up MVP from Indiana was 5-10 So. Sierra Graham Bullitt Central Shepherdsville, KY.
