Professional Sports Camps - Basketball
Since 1946
Professional Sports Camps has operated baseball, basketball, and soccer camps throughout the United States and abroad. We operate with the same principles that have made us successful for the past 62 years: 1) hire a qualified, professional, and experienced staff of knowledgeable baseball, basketball, and soccer coaches, 2) work hard to help every camper improve his/her skills, 3) offer the personal touch that enable each and every camper to enjoy his/her stay, and 4) stay committed to youth as a person, as well as, an athlete.
The Professional Sports Basketball Camps is operated in a great location in the New Jersey area. The objective of the camp is to help each and every camper improve his/her skills by stressing the fundamentals in the sport of basketball.
LENGTH OF STAY
Minimum of 1 week. Campers are welcome to stay for more than 1 week if so desired (2, 3, 4, weeks etc.). Resident Campers check in Sunday afternoon and ends on Friday afternoon. Day Campers begin on Monday morning and ends on Friday afternoon.
CAMPERS STAYING TWO OR MORE WEEKS
For those campers who are staying longer than one week, they have the option of returning home for the weekend or staying over at camp. There is an additional $240 fee in order to stay over the weekend. During the weekend the campers will attend a movie; either go bowling or play miniature golf, and visit an amusement park such as Mountain Creek Water Park or Six Flags Great Adventure. Campers who decide to go home for the weekend will be allowed to keep their belongings in their assigned rooms.
SUPERVISION
Supervision is something that is a high priority with our camp. All activities the campers participate in during the day are fully supervised by adult coaches and counselors.
1) Lectures
Short lectures will be given on the fundamentals of the game. Remember it is through the proper execution of fundamentals that you will become a good basketball player.
2) Stations
Campers will be broken down to no more than 10 – 15 campers per basket. At each basket is one or more of our professional coaches. Each station will last approximately 20 minutes. During this time a specific aspect of the game will be covered, for example, rebounding, dribbling, foul shooting, etc..
3) Drills
Drills are used to teach campers the skills necessary to succeed and the notion of teamwork.
4) Instructional Games
We want every moment of the week to be a learning experience for every camper. It is for this reason that during games, if a camper makes a mistake or does not execute properly, one of our coaches will show him/her what he/she did wrong and how to do it right. It is another way of instructing our campers, and leaves them more knowledgeable and improved in their skills.
5) Individual Instructions
Individual instructions will be given to those campers who need the individual attention or who request it.
6) Teach To Understand
We want every camper to understand the reasoning behind the methods we use. It is for this reason that our coaches take the time to explain the reasoning behind why you execute a certain way. If campers can understand the methods, they are more likely to comprehend and remember them after leaving camp.
