2012 Under Armour Recruiting Classic:
December 27 – 30, 2012

Highly Accelerated Player Development, College Recruiting and Competition

This program is designed for High School players who have shown a high level of polish in their game and are ready for the most advanced instructional techniques.

Players will train 10 hours per day and play in a highly competitive National Tournament with players from all over the United States.
