CIC gave me the tools to elevate my game to that next level each year I attended. I was challenged at every level; mentally. physically. and spiritually. CIC gave me a taste of what college basketball was going to be like, it prepared me in all those 3 areas. I have had so much success because I took all those tools learned at camp, and applied them into my individual practice. CIC was not just a eight day camp for me to soon forget all that I had learned. It became a year round tool for me to improve upon on my game. Still today I use the the one series in college games, and when I need a 15 minute workout I know where to find it. If your looking for something to prepare you for the college level this is the camp to attend. Spiritually NBC/CIC has helped me to stay strong to what I believe, and has taught me how to be a servant of our Lord.
