FastDraw play diagramming software

FastDraw is the play diagramming software used by the NBA, as well as many major colleges and universities. It is a simple drag & drop program. The diagram of the court (you can choose either half-court or full court layout) is already there. You simply click on the player number, drag to spot on the court and drop it. The lines for dribble, pass, cut and screen are already there, just click on the one you need, drag to spot on the court and drop it. Once you diagram a play, name it and it is saved into your personal library. The number of plays you diagram is limitless.

FastDraw is offering this software to NCBCA members for $25. The deal is, any NCBCA member interested in signing up must send a $25 check to the NCBCA. A small amount of the initial sign up actually stays with the NCBCA as an incentive for us helping to promote their product. We (NCBCA) then compile a list of coaches that have paid for the software and then send the FastDraw folks a big check along with a list of names and email addresses of the coaches that have signed up. We can send them lists weekly so we don’t have to wait until we receive a specific number of signups. FastDraw will then email you and get you signed into the program. The license is good for 1 calendar year from the time you initially sign in. If you are interested in seeing the product before purchasing go to this website, http://www.fastmodelsoftware.com/Webinar_Registration.html , and you can sign up to watch a free Webinar where they actually demonstrate the product. Those interested in signing up should mail your $25 check with a valid email address to:

Gary Bowne NCBCA
260 32nd Ave NW
Hickory, NC 28601

Be sure to state it is for the FastDraw software.
