Kentucky has finalized its lineup for the 2013 Prasco John Calipari ProCamp presented by SunnyD and Fifth Third Bank, which will take place at the end of July and early August. Former UK stars Nerlens Noel, Archie Goodwin, Julius Mays, Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Eric Bledsoeand DeMarcus Cousins will be featured as this year's pros.

This summer's Pro Camps will be split into two separate camps. Pro Camp I will take place July 29-30 and Pro Camp II will be held July 31-Aug. 1.

Noel, Goodwin and Mays will be at both days of Pro Camp I and Bledsoe and Cousins will participate in both days of Pro Camp II. Davis and Kidd-Gilchrist will be featured for a day each at both Pro Camp I and Pro Camp II. The lineup of the featured pros is subject to change.

The cost for each camp is $199 per camper and includes a camp T-shirt, two days of instruction, competitions, autograph session and camp team photo with the featured Wildcat pros. Both camps will be held at the Joe Craft Center and Memorial Coliseum.

The Pro Camps are open to both boys and girls of the appropriate age/grade level, which varies between sessions. Camper's grade level is based on the grade in which the camper will enroll during the fall of 2013 school year

In an effort to accommodate camper participation with all 2013 Wildcat pro players, UK will offer a discount for signing up for both camps at the price of $350. The discounted price is only available by selecting and registering for both desired camps during the same registration session online. You will be given the option to select the number of camps you would like to attend and the discount will be displayed at the end of your registration of both camps.

John Calipari

John Calipari is a two-time Naismith National Coach of the Year recipient and the current head coach at the University of Kentucky. In his first year at UK, Calipari led the Wildcats to a 35-3 record, the school’s 44th Southeastern Conference regular season title, the SEC Tournament championship and a trip to the NCAA Tournament’s Elite Eight. Despite an NBA-record five Wildcats going in the first round of this year’s NBA Draft, Calipari will welcome to campus his second-consecutive No. 1 recruiting class for 2010.

Calipari began his coaching career at Kansas under Larry Brown, before serving as an assistant at Pittsburgh. At age 29, he was hired as head coach at UMass, where he turned the program into a nationally recognized team. After leading UMass to the Final Four in 1996, Calipari went on to coach the New Jersey Nets, which included a trip to the 1998 NBA Playoffs. After a year under Brown as an assistant with the Philadelphia 76ers, Calipari returned to the college ranks. In nine years at Memphis, Calipari led the Tigers to six NCAA Tournaments, including an appearance in the 2008 NCAA Championship game. After four consecutive 30-win seasons, Calipari accepted the UK coaching position on March 31, 2009.

In January of 2011, UK earned its first No. 1 ranking since 2003, making Calipari the second coach in NCAA history to have led three different schools to a No. 1 ranking. Calipari has coached 17 eventual NBA Draft picks, including ten in the last three seasons. He also recently became the fifth coach to have coached two overall No. 1 NBA Draft selections (Derrick Rose, John Wall).  During the 2010-2011 season, he coached Kentucky to the SEC tournament championship.  The Wildcats ended up making their first final four since 1998 and finished the season at 29-9.  Also this past year, Coach Cal helped raise more than $1 million for Haiti.
