Im Jahre 2015 haben wir unsere zweite Campsaison beendet. Wir sind dankbar und stolz auf die ersten beiden Academy Jahre: • 30 Camps / 54 Campgruppen / 7 Locations • 285 Camptage / 6’433 Logiernächte / 33’265 Essen • 1‘213 Camp Teilnehmer / 377 Coaches & Staff • 704 Std.

Man sagt ja im Sport, das zweite Jahr sei immer das Schwie rigste. Und wir konnten gemäss unseren Kunden unser hohes Qualitätsniveau aus der Premierensaison halten und wurden unter dem Strich wieder mit 9.2 von maximal 10 Punkten eingestuft, was einer Bewertung von SEHR GUT bis EXZELLENT entspricht. Danke! Eine grosse Motivation für die Zukunft. Und die wird sehr spannend. WHAT’S NEW? Die Academy Familie wächst und wächst. Für uns bedeutet das organisches Wachs- tum und die Expansion. Für 2016 planen wir folgende Neuerungen: INTERNATIONALISIERUNG Es ist an der Zeit, den Academy Teilnehmern hochkarätige internationale Wachs- tumschancen zu schaffen. Der Vergleich mit der internationalen Konkurrenz ist herausfordernd, öffnet die Scheuklappen und zeigt auf, woran noch geschafft werden muss. Dass dies ungemein wichtige Learnings für eine erfolgreiche Weiterentwick- lung sind, beweist nicht zuletzt unser Going Pro Camp USA, wo mehrere Teilnehmer in der Zwischenzeit den Durchbruch ins NLA Niveau geschafft haben. Die Academy geniesst mittlerweile auch über die Landesgrenzen hinaus einen exzellenten Ruf und so werden wir eingeladen zu den besten internationalen Nach- wuchsturnieren.

  • Ncaa Conference Championship Weekend Trash Talk
    NCAA CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND TRASH TALK In the Pros and Joes discussion, this weekend features the Joes. It is the conference championship weekend, and the final action before the Final Football Four are selected. So, let’s start there. Utah was well on its way to a potential Championship final four appearance for the Pac-12. Nope. The Oregon Quackers made the Utes Duck. Bigly. Oregon undoubtedly goes to the Rose Bowl, and who knows about Utah. Their extremely good defense was shredded by the Ducks. Ouch. There are five more critical games on the schedule today, and Cincinnati and Memphis for the AAC is the lesser of them, though it may well be a fantastic game. It is in Memphis at Liberty Bowl stadium, so I will roll with the Tigers at their home. With the Utah fail, that means Baylor versus Oklahoma (shoutout to our departed friend Freepatriot, who loved the Sooners), may well mean a final four berth. It is a neutral site. Something smells of a Baylor upset, but the Sooners are now coached by Line Riley as opposed to Bob Stoops, so I don’t think so. Sooners. The B1G Championship is played in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Would be a fantastic story if Wisconsin could beat the Bucks, but that is a bad bet. Virginia may get Cavalier and upset Trevor Lawrence and Clemson, but it would be shocking. Clemson and Lawrence started a little slow this year, but are undefeated and are averaging 50 points a game since mid-October. That leaves the big one, i.e.
