Our coaching staff has dedicated personnel with proven success in boys’ basketball. With this in mind, our camp philosophy is to teach our players the role that skills, teamwork, dedication, hard work, and attitude play in becoming a successful basketball player. We strive to improve each camper’s skill level in shooting, ball handling, offensive moves, footwork, rebounding and defensive positioning. Summer camps are important to a young athlete's development and we are dedicated to making those steps as fun as possible for you. At the end of camp, we want our players to know that our staff did everything we could to make each one of you move successfully on to the next level.
