10 Reviews
The coaches were personable and allowed for correction and growth in a safe environment. The camper evaluations provided positive coach and camper interactions! The camp environment encouraged the campers to focus on goals and next level both on and off the court!
Izzy enjoyed the competition and the instruction. I appreciate the defensive instruction very much. Most camps focus on just the offense.
My daughter loves this camp and continues to attend summer after summer. The Director and Coaches not only teach the necessary skills to improve her on-court performance, but they also stress the importance of confidence, leadership, and determination. Once again, she had a great week!!
Tylan was super excited to have this experience, being the youngest at this camp he learned a lot of things in basketball that he needs to improve on and things that could make him a much better player. And not to mention all the great friends he made throughout the week.

He stated that they were able to work on improving his skills and techniques. He liked that a report was sent home on the things he did well and others that needed improvement. Thank you!
Jaylon was pushed to play better, because of his skills he was able to play with the older kids. Best camp he's attended thus far in his basketball career. thank you. coaches were positive and made the kids work hard and keeping it fun.
I liked how I could use the skills that I learned in the drills and apply some of them to the actual game of basketball. It was fun learning how to pass, shoot, dribble, and do many other things in basketball better than I could before I went to this camp.
