SANTA FE, N.M. - July 10, 2015 - PRLog -- Brian McCormick, the founder of the Youth Basketball Coaches Association and author of The 21st Century Basketball Practice, will travel to Nairobi, Kenya, Jinga, Uganda, and Kampala, Uganda in August to work with basketball coaches and players. McCormick, who has advised the Another Level Sports Association and All.One Academy in Nairobi over the past five years, will team with these organizations for the camps and clinics.

While in Africa, McCormick will work with players and coaches from the X-Street Uganda Basketball Academy, JKL Lady Dolphins Basketball in Kampala, Uganda, FEBA Elite Boys, All.One Girls Basketball Academy, and ALSA youth basketball coaches.
