Kennedy prepping players for next level with camp

Pat Osborne continues to create opportunities for young players to develop their basketball potential. Kennedy Prep is hosting a basketball showcase May 13th at Kennedy Collegiate. "I'm gonna get the top 25 kids, put them in groups, from Chatham down. Chatham, Sarnia, Windsor area and they'll just play. These guys will scout them and hopefully recruit them.

Osborne says five colleges and universities from the U.S. will be there to look at the grade 11 and 12 players between 10am and 12:30. The event is being sponsored by the Rafih Group and the Insureit Group.

It's an invite camp but Osborne says players can contact him if they are interested in being part of it. 🏀Kennedy Prep Basketball🏀 (@kennedyprepbasketball) | Instagram

Opportunities don't stop there. Osborne is working on launching a junior development team. "It's gonna be great for the grade 8's coming in and grade 9's and 10's around the area if they want the exposure from the OSBA." Osborne said.

He continues his attempt to create a girls team as well. His senior team played in the Ontario Scholastic Basketball Association last season and finished with a 13-5 record. With a third place finish in the B-Group Kennedy Prep has earned the right be promoted to the A-Group.
