Looking for a perfect Christmas gift for that aspiring young female hoopster in your family? Well look no further as two of the more recognizable names from your Indiana Fever have got you covered and then some, with their instructional basketball camps over the holiday break.
On Dec. 21 and 22, stand out point guard Tully Bevilaqua will conduct her camp at The Fieldhouse, at 11825 Technology Drive in Fishers. The camp for girls ages six to 17, runs from 9 a.m. to noon each day and will emphasize instruction on shooting, ball handling, and defensive skills. The cost to attend is $ 90.00.
Each camper will receive a camp shirt and will hear from guest speaker and Fever head coach Lin Dunn.

Notes: It is indeed refreshing to see these classy ladies take time out over the holidays to work with young women who look up to them.
