Welcome to PGC Basketball.
Now that you’ve signed up, there are a few things you need to do to make sure you’re ready...
FORMS TO COMPLETE:
Complete the Personal Information Sheet & Medical Release and Liability Waiver and bring these forms
with you to your session. These forms will be collected at check-in on the opening day. DO NOT mail these
forms to us in advance. Keep the entire packet in a safe place until you come to your session.
CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT:
Check-in is between 11:30am-1:15pm on the first day and includes a parent meeting at 1:15pm, where the
director of the course will provide an overview of the session and address the most frequently asked
questions. Check-out is between 11:00am-11:30am on the final morning. Please see page 7 on this packet
for specific check-in and check-out locations for your session.

PREPARATION FOR PGC:
We recommend that you come to your session in the best shape possible. The ideal way to prepare for your
session is to complete our new “Pre-PGC 30-Day Challenge.” Visit our Online Training page at pgcbasketball.com
to begin your challenge — Today! Work hard and prepare yourself well – you’ll be glad you did.

HYDRATION:
One key to successfully completing a PGC session is proper hydration. Proper fluid intake (water or sport
electrolyte drinks) in the days prior to, during, and after a PGC session is imperative to preventing dehydration
during the rigorous PGC gym sessions, to preventing injuries, and for competing at optimal levels.
THINGS TO BRING WITH YOU TO PGC BASKETBALL:
Clothes (basketball shoes, shorts, shirts, socks…LOTS of socks, etc.)
Sheet and blanket or sleeping bag for your bed (unless otherwise noted on page 7)
Pillow and pillowcase
Small fan (Although most rooms are air-conditioned, small fans may make the room more comfortable.)
Alarm clock (you’ll be responsible for getting yourself up and to sessions on time!)
Towel(s)
Toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc.
A basketball with your name on it (we will only be playing indoors)
A water bottle with your name on it
A tennis ball (with something marked on the ball that distinguishes your ball from others) for Prep
School and Essential courses ONLY
Five unfilled balloons (any size and color) for Prep School courses ONLY
Pens and/or pencils
A notebook or $10.00 to purchase a PGC custom binder for your notes
Paper for a 3 ring binder (if you plan to purchase a PGC custom binder)
Athletic tape - if you have an injury that requires it
Your completed Medical Release and Liability Waiver & Personal Information Sheet (along with a
picture) These forms will be collected at check-in on the opening day. DO NOT mail these forms to us in
advance.
Your $75 key deposit check made out to PGC (This will be returned to you when you turn in your key
at check out.)
ADDITIONAL ITEMS:
Healthy Snacks
As athletes typically get hungry after evening gym sessions, healthy protein snack bars and energy electrolyte
drink powders will be available for purchase at check-in. We recommend bringing extra money to purchase
these snacks or bring your own healthy snacks. On occasion, dorm rooms will have a refrigerator in them, but
that is typically not the case. Please note that athletes are not permitted to cook in the dorms.

Extra Spending Money
There will be PGC custom binders, books, bags, t-shirts, shorts and other merchandise on sale at check-in and checkout,
so we recommend bringing extra money. Also, on the final night athletes typically order pizza at the conclusion
of our late night gym session.
DO NOT BRING:
Do not bring a Wii, X-box, PS3, DS, iPad or other similar items to your session. Players who bring these
items to PGC are usually not serious athletes – they are campers. You won’t be spending that much time in
the dorms, and when you are in the dorms, you and most of your fellow athletes will want to rest up for the
next session. Come to PGC to learn as much as you can.
INJURIES:
If you are injured prior to your session, we recommend that you still attend. Many athletes have done this, and
nearly every athlete has said they were glad they did. The majority of teaching takes place in the classroom, so
as long as you can write and sit in a chair, you’ll get all the information that every other athlete receives. Please
note: If you decide not to attend your course due to an injury, our cancellation policy still applies.
During sessions, we do our best to ensure that an Athletic Trainer will be on site to provide ice and first aid as
needed. If an emergency arises with an athlete, the athlete will be referred to a local medical facility and parents
will be notified
INTERNATIONAL ATHLETES:
If you are an athlete attending a session in a country that you are not a resident, you must purchase
international travel insurance and provide a certificate of coverage to PGC two weeks prior to the start of your
session. The certificate of coverage can be emailed to the contact information listed on the following page.
FINAL PAYMENTS:
If you have a remaining balance on your PGC tuition, be sure to pay it in full (by check or online) before your
payment deadline. Your deposit will reserve your spot until then, but you may lose your spot if you do not
pay your balance on time.
PAYMENT DEADLINES:
June Sessions – May 1, 2012; July Sessions – June 1, 2012; August Sessions – July 1, 2012.
www.pgcbasketball.com
CANCELLATIONS:
Cancellations for any reason up to 30 days before your session will receive a PGC credit (not a refund) for your
paid tuition or deposit, minus a $25 administration fee. This PGC credit can be applied toward an available course
in 2012 or 2013. You can also transfer this PGC credit to a family member, teammate or friend, or you can donate
your credit to an underprivileged athlete.

flexible cancellation options are available with the purchase of Tuition Protection.

PGC offers Tuition Protection, available only at the time of registration, for $35 per participant for summer
courses. If you cancel at least 30 days before your session, Tuition Protection guarantees you a full refund of
registration fees.

3 days of your session there will be no refunds or credits.
