  • The City of Newark
    TO ALL President’s Message Inductees, Scholarship Recipients, Family and Friends, It is with great honor that I welcome you tonight, to our 30nd Annual Newark Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Dinner. Since 1988, we have been honoring athletes from public and private schools in and around the City of Newark. Our initial purpose was to focus attention on Newark’s glorious past and its bright future by creating a positive environment where friendships, camaraderie and memories can be renewed. Tonight we continue that tradition with eighteen new Inductees and four Scholarship Awardees. The Honorees have proven, as in the past, that they are to be recognized as true role models, a characteristic very much in need these days, whether in a large city or a small town. You can turn to a bio page in this or any one of the previous twenty-nine books of inductees and find a role model you can be proud to emulate. The hallmarks of a good athlete are dedication, desire, teamwork, hard work, time management and good sportsmanship. These are the same qualities necessary to succeed in the classroom and the workplace. That’s why our Hall of Fame Family of Inductees are to be viewed as success stories, on and off the field. To our Scholarship Award Winners, you have been recognized to possess the characteristics outlined above; therefore, we wish you good fortune in college and hope to see you back here one evening on the dais, as a future Inductee into the Hall of Fame. Finally, as Newark has become a hotbed for professional and college sports alike, we must not forget the high school and recreation level athletes and support their efforts.

  • Player Centrality on NBA Teams
    Player Centrality on NBA Teams Sohum Misra ([email protected]) Stanford University SCPD Student 1. Introduction The NBA is entering its golden age of statistical analysis with teams all over the league trying to employ novel techniques to gain an edge on their competitors. Although it is not as statistically motivated as baseball, the league has shifted its focus to advanced statistics to be able to determine the value of a player that may not be obviously tangible. The goal of this project and paper is to build on work done in this domain by applying some concepts of graph theory to the problem. I will be constructing many network models of NBA line-ups and will try to optimize different metrics to determine node centrality. The goal of the project is to (a) determine who the best players in the NBA are according to these network models, (b) determine who the most important players are on each team and (c) compare these findings to some of the most popular advanced statistics that are used by teams today. The data-set for this project is NBA line-up data for the last five completed seasons (beginning from the 2012-13 season up to the 2016-17 season). 2. Related Work 2.1 Five-man line-up analysis This kind of network analysis to evaluate player performance and centrality in the NBA is based on Evaluating Basketball Player Performance via Statistical Network Modeling by Piette et al. [1] In that paper, the authors designed this methodology for evaluating player performance and used it to determine the most important players in four NBA seasons (2006- 07 to 2009-10).

  • Team Training Program
    TEAM TRAINING Impact Basketball is very proud of our extensive productive tradition of training teams from around the world as they prepare for upcoming events, seasons, or tournament competition. It is with great honor that we help your team to be at its very best through our comprehensive training and team-building program. The Impact Basketball Team Training Program will give your players a chance to train together in a focused environment with demanding on-court offensive and defensive skill training along with intense off-court strength and conditioning training. The experienced Impact Basketball staff will provide the team with a truly unique bonding experience through training and competition, as well as off-court team building activities. Designated team practice times and live games against high-level American players, including NBA players, provide teams with an opportunity to prepare for their upcoming competition while also developing individually. Each team’s program will be completely customized to fit their schedule, with direct consultation from the team’s coaching staff and management. We will integrate any and all concepts that the coaching staff would like to implement and focus the training on areas that the team’s coaches have deemed deficient. Our incorporation of off-site training and team-building exercises make this a one-of-a-kind opportunity for team and individual development. We have the ability to provide training options for the entire team or for a smaller group of the team’s players. The Impact staff can help set up all the housing, food, and transportation needs for the team.
