Pro Level Training

Pro Level Training’s concept is very simple: cover all grounds with everyone that we work with. In addition to skills training, we place major emphasis on the strength, conditioning and performance sides of the game. We will give campers a snapshot of how professional basketball players train in order to get the most out of every second on the floor.

WHAT FAMILIES SAY ABOUT Nike Basketball Camp at Hood College

Jameson had a blast at camp and learned so much! Some of the principles and fundamentals really resonated with him! It was a great week!
Nico said he learned new skills. The camp was competitive. He enjoyed the friendly coaching staff. As a parent, I had safety concerns about the pick up and drop off points at the venue. Staff addressed the issue immediately. We were allowed to drop off and pick up from a secured parking lot close to the building without paying a fee each time we went out. I was very satisfied with the response. I also loved how the camp used social media to highlight the activities in camp. The camp was definitely worth the time and money.
The individual challenges from the coaches as well as them speaking life into the kids that truly wanted to learn and grow.
My child had a lot of fun while also learning skills for the competitive part of the game.
Great coaching, solid personal feedback but also really nice, the gym was great.
The coaches made my daughter feel welcomed, comfortable and were fun to be around. My daughter commented that they pushed her to improve, but did it in a way that made her feel comfortable.
The coaches -- all very friendly and really interested in developing the kids.
My daughter had a great time while improving her basketball skills!

Evan gained confidence, skills, and new friendships through this camp. Jourdain was an exceptional leader and coach for these kids! We will be telling our friends about it for next summer!
One of his highlights was telling me that all the coaches knew his name. Watching the awards ceremony, I saw how connected the coaches were with each camper. Each coach had something awesome to say about each camper, whether it was 110% effort or funniest camper. Fantastic group of coaches!
Kilah loved everything about the camp, she misses it already. She loved the scrimmages and I must say her favorite instructor was Jeff if she had to pick one.
