FACTS:

-The focus will be on teaching the basketball fundamentals by doing a wide array of fun and competitive drills. COMPETITIVE BASKETBALL games will be part of the camp session format. The trainers will provide the necessary feedback to the youth throughout the camp sessions so their basketball skill sets are improved.

-Registration is limited to a smaller amount of players than some larger camps which allows for the trainers to provide more individualized feedback and attention.

-There will be at least TWO experienced trainers running every session. The trainers played college basketball. The head trainer's full bio is online in the "TRAINERS" section.

-Players are allowed to "play up" or "play down" a grade level if the schedule works better for the family (i.e., 5th Grade can play at the 6th level and 6th graders can play at the 5th-grade level, etc.)

-Every player will receive a basketball t-shirt.

-The participant fee is $210 and can be paid with a credit card, checking/debit account during the online registration process as well as a personal check.

-All registered participants will receive more information about the opening day of camp a few days before it is set to begin.
