Rain or shine the gym is always open, for CONVERSE OPEN GYM!!!

On Monday March 29th the Chain Link staff and 100 student athlete participants gathered at Lake Clifton High School for three great hours of basketball. The energy and excitement in the gym was contagious as the coaches and players gave their all to make this a terrific clinic. Being able to execute a quality program at Lake Clifton was very exciting as their legendary coach Herman “Tree” Harried was on hand to not only watch but lend a hand and speak with the Chain Link coaching staff and participants.

On Tuesday Chain Link ran it back at the Carmelo Anthony Recreation Center. Again the coaching staff and participants brought it strong for three hours working on their individual skills, conditioning and some team concepts. It was a strong back to back showing of basketball instruction and training for Chain Link Fundamentals down in Baltimore. Enjoy the pic’s below of the Carmelo Center:

The clinic was then followed by the latest House of Hoops store opening at the Willowbrook Mall. Joining Celestand was current ESPN college basketball analyst Jay WIlliams the former Duke All-American and New Jersey native.

Together they helped honor players John Snow (Junior Guard from Montclair Kimberley Academy) and Brianne Traub (Junior Guard from Eastern Christian High School) along with coach Janice Walker of the East Orange All-Stars and the Jersey Jayhawks program for their role in advancing the lives of their student athletes and their role in the community.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops in D.C., Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored two local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was Howard D. Woodson’s Ronika Ransford.

Ronika Ransford
Hometown: Washington, D.C.
High School: Howard D. Woodson High School
Year: Class of 2010
Height: 5-6
Position: Point Guard

It’s not hard to find adjectives to describe H.D. Woodson’s Ronika Ransford. “Program changer,” “lightning-quick” and “dynamic and explosive threat” have all been used to depict the senior point guard. Basically anytime she steps on the court, people can’t help but stop what they’re doing and watch her play. Leading the Lady Warriors to their second consecutive City Title last season, Ronika looks to do it again before the floor general heads to Georgia next Fall.

One of those local athletes was Gonzaga’s Tyler Thornton.

Tyler Thornton
Hometown: Washington, D.C.
High School: Gonzaga College High School
Year: Class of 2010
Height: 6-2
Weight: 180
Position: Point Guard

After losing three starters before last season, it looked as though Gonzaga was headed for a rebuilding year. But the Purple Eagles jumped out to a phenomenal start led by cagey point guard Tyler Thornton. This year, the senior combo guard – who is a very aggressive and quick dribble-drive player who gets to the rim at will – looks to lead the charge through the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference once again before he heads to Duke next Fall. With tremendous skill and an uncanny basketball IQ, the District will be watching.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops in Houston, Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored four local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was North Shore’s Courtney Williams.

Courtney Williams
Hometown: Houston, TX
High School: North Shore High School
Year: Class of 2012
Height: 6-0
Position: Shooting Guard

When North Shore High School lost their all-time leading scorer to graduation this May, they weren’t worried one bit. Because if there was going to be anyone primed to take over for the Mustangs, it was going to be sophomore Courtney Williams. After winning Newcomer of the Year honors in District 21-5A, Courtney was one of the select few asked to compete for the 2009 USA Women’s U16 National Team this summer. Building on that experience and a solid inaugural campaign, watch out for Courtney to blow up on the scene this year.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops in Houston, Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored four local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was Yates’ Brandon Peters.

Brandon Peters
Hometown: Houston, TX
High School: Yates High School
Year: Class of 2010
Height: 6-1
Weight: 160
Position: Shooting Guard

There’s a reason Yates High School is entering the season as the defending state champs with a Top 5 national ranking, and his name is Brandon “Snap” Peters. Showing recruiters that he’s more than just a high-flying human highlight reel (capable of jumping over or around a defender to finish above the rim with ease), Snap is arguably one of the most athletic players in the country. With offers on the table from Memphis, Oregon State and Western Kentucky, the exciting guard is one of the main attractions to watch in Houston this season.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops in Houston, Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored four local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was Bellaire’s Tobi Oyedeji.

Tobi Oyedeji
Hometown: Bellaire, TX
High School: Bellaire High School
Year: Class of 2010
Height: 6-8
Weight: 210
Position: Power Forward

Bellaire High School didn’t become the top team in 5A overnight. Thanks to senior Tobi Oyedeji, the Cardinals should remain atop the standings this year. As one of the most energetic post players in the Class of 2010, Tobi, who has already committed to Texas A&M, is reminiscent of another Bellaire grad, Emeka Okafor. Much like the former Rookie of the Year, Tobi is a terror on the glass on both ends of the floor, averaging 16 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks per game last season. Tobi’s potential is limitless – watch out as this kid continues to make strides.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops in Houston, Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored four local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was Westbury Christian’s Anthony Collins.

Anthony Collins
Hometown: Houston, TX
High School: Westbury Christian School
Year: Class of 2011
Height: 6-0
Weight: 165
Position: Point Guard

You would have a tough time finding a point guard anywhere in the country whose offseason was as productive as Anthony Collins’ summer. After the Wildcats captured their third TAPPS state title in six years in the 4A championship, Anthony was a terror on the summer circuit during tournaments in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. An excellent ball handler and passer with the ability to burst by most defenders, Anthony is a coach’s dream. This season, after garnering First Team All-Conference honors, the pressure’s on. It’s no wonder he’s receiving interest from schools coast to coast.

For the official opening of the House of Hoops presented by Foot Locker at the Cherry Hill Mall (N.J.) on August 16th, Chainlink Fundamentals and Dime Magazine honored four local high school basketball players for their solid work both on and off the court.

One of those local athletes was Cherry Hill East’s Marie Boisvert.

Marie Boisvert
Hometown: Montreal, Canada
High School: Cherry Hill East, Class of 2011
Height: 5-9
Weight: 165
Position: Guard/Forward

Playing in the toughest girls basketball conference in the state, Marie Boisvert makes it look easy. After skipping over the freshman team to play for the junior varsity (and even a couple varsity games) as a freshman, you can see why Marie’s favorite player is LeBron James. Admiring her parents and coaches as they continuously help her to get better, the 5-9 native of Montreal, Canada is certainly a future star. And after earning First-Team All Conference honors this past season as a sophomore, it seems everyone in South Jersey already knows.
