In today's episode, I sit down and talk with FunRaisen CEO Anthony Gerson. He is a busy dad, business owner, and coach who has coached both school sports and travel sports. He breaks down the disconnect he saw between teams and the people they were asking to support them and how FunRaisen offers a unique approach that allows coaches to easily raise funds, connect with their supporters, and build team chemistry.

For more information about FunRaisen, you can go to www.funraisen.com.

Anthony and his team can be contacted at a@funraisen.com or support@funraisen.com.

In today's episode, we will look at some of the do's and don'ts of open gym. At times we are a bit handcuffed by state association rules and then other times we can have some input. When we are able to have some input we want to be sure our players are getting the absolute most they can every time they step on the floor for open gym.

In this episode, I take a quick look at three areas that make your camp go but aren't talked about very often. 

1. Online Sign-Ups

2. Liability Waivers and Liability Insurance

3. Staffing (Hiring/Volunteers)

Each area is important and shouldn't be overlooked but I know they aren't as fun as drills and games.😉



If you're looking at putting on your own camp but aren't sure where to start I encourage you to check out my Starting and Running A Basketball Camp From A-Z Course. I give you everything, and I mean everything, that goes into a successful camp.

In this episode, I share two formulas I've found to be very helpful when it comes to running a successful camp. 

1. Fun = Competition or Competition = Fun

2. The Rule of 10

Each formula leads to more engagement and focus from the campers. They don't want to listen to a bunch of talking, they want to be active. To learn more about each formula take a listen to this quick win episode.
