The John Calipari Women’s Clinic is back for another year.

The women of Big Blue Nation will get a double dose of Kentucky men’s basketball on the weekend of the Blue-White Game (Oct. 22) with the return of the Women’s Clinic on Oct. 23.

One day after the Wildcats’ intrasquad scrimmage in Pikeville, Kentucky, females of all ages* will be invited to take a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the program with the always-popular Women’s Clinic. 

This year’s Women’s Clinic will be held at the Joe Craft Center. The annual clinic will take place from 3-6 p.m.

Registration is now open with the following options.

  • $150 – Clinic participation and signed panel basketball by Kentucky basketball (limited quantities available)
  • $120 – Clinic participation and signed panel basketball by John Calipari (limited quantities available)
  • $99 – Clinic participation only

The Women’s Clinic is designed for females with all levels of basketball knowledge and experience and offers an exclusive inside look at the Kentucky men’s basketball program.

Each participant will be guaranteed a small group picture with the entire team as well as an opportunity to take a photo with Coach Calipari. Participants will be able to download their picture with the team for free for digital or print use after the clinic. 

Always one of the highlights of the clinic, participants will have the opportunity to purchase one signed panel basketball during online registration. That ball is included in the above pricing options. Additional balls will not be for sale at the clinic. The only item that will be guaranteed to be signed by UK personnel is the basketball purchased during registration. Clinic attendees will be allowed to bring one additional item to be signed by Coach Calipari only during registration.

Registration will be from 1:30-3 p.m. Participants should enter the ticket office lobby of Memorial Coliseum adjacent to Lexington Avenue for check-in.

Parking will be available in the Joe Craft Center lot adjacent to the building. Attendees must park in a legal parking spot.

Throughout the designated check-in time, attendees can enjoy a self-guided tour of the Craft Center, including the UK men’s basketball locker room. Men’s basketball staff members will be stationed throughout the facility for directions and questions. Food will be available during registration from 1:30-3 p.m.

Following check-in, the clinic will begin at 3 p.m. Programming this season will include the introduction of the 2022-23 Kentucky men’s basketball team, a panel with the assistant coaching staff including new assistant K.T. Turner, an interactive presentation from new strength and conditioning coach Brady Welsh, a fashion show, a Q & A with Coach Calipari, and more.

Attendees are encouraged to wear comfortable attire (athletic shoes) and participate in activities and presentations at their own risk.
