Friday Night Workouts

As a program, we have always worked to provide our athletes with additional opportunities to get in the gym and develop their skills. While our practices will be filled with skill development and intense training, we know some athletes want to go above and beyond. These Friday Night Workouts are open to all athletes, not just current Mercury Elite players, providing an extra opportunity for those looking to push themselves further.

This week’s workout will emphasize finishing creatively, finishing through contact, footwork off the dribble and 1 on 1 attacking moves to get to the paint! We will also get a ton of game-speed shots up emphasizing form and footwork! 

DATES: 
3/7, 3/14, 3/21, 3/28, 4/4, 4/11, 4/18, 5/2, 5/9, 5/23

Time: 5:00-6:30pm
Location: Sawmill Sports Hub
Cost: $40 per workout
