Lady Pirates Open with a 58-38 Win Over Corydon

Charlestown started “in a daze” but got it in gear to take a 30-23 halftime before opening it up in the second and securing a twenty point MSC and season opener at Corydon.  The Lady Pirates (1-0 & 1-0 MSC) were led by Kaitlynn Hennings 31 points and 5 steals and Justice Burdin’s 12 points to dominate in the second half.  “Henning’s defense was aggressive, she created a lot of easy baskets with her steals,” Coach Prichard said. “We played a great defensive game, and did a really good job of rebounding.”  The win marks the second straight victory over the MSC Lady Panther rivals.  The Lady Pirates host South Central tonight (Saturday) beginning with a 6:00 pm Junior Varsity tip.

CBDL Hosting a Coaches Clinic October 22nd

The Charlestown Basketball Developmental League (CBDL) will host a FREE Basketball Coaching Clinic on Wednesday, October 22nd, from 6-830 PM, at the Charlestown High School.  This purpose of this clinic is to help develop all of the basketball players among our community teams ; Schools (Elementary, Middle, High), CBDL, Travel Teams (CYP, CYLP) and our players that are in AAU programs.

Organizers are encouraging all current coaches to attend (all levels), with an open invitation to anyone that might be interested to coach down the line.  This may be an opportunity for some prospective coaches to learn a little bit more before they jump into coaching the game, especially if they are sitting on the fence.  This coaching clinic will include on-court demonstrations with local players; while performing some of the drills and skills that many of our current coaches use.  Diagrams for participants to take notes on along with time for questions and answers will coaches will be made available.  Currently all high school and middle school coaches have been asked to lead the before mentioned demonstrations, and Coach Gilbert will be conducting a presentation at the clinic.

Lady Pirate Fall Basketball Fundamental Sessions Conclude

IMG_20140927_120036Coach Prichard:  I just wanted to say thanks to all of the families, parents, and guardians that have brought their loved ones out on these Saturday mornings over the past month and a half at Charlestown High School. We had a total of 40 different participants and averaged around 25 participants between our two split age group that worked very hard. I believe that the participants in these fundamental sessions got an idea of developing the building blocks of a sports work-ethic. One of the goals of these fundamental sessions was to work on skills and keep trying in our drills, even when they seemed hard or difficult. They learned this drills and many of them they can work on at home or work on them when they are at a city park or in the gym. As long as I am the Coach at Charlestown High School, I would like to continue with these Free Fundamental Sessions in the Fall and even try offering them in the Spring. So Stay Tuned For Updates.
