  • My daughter learned a lot in a very friendly, supportive environment! Even though she has a quiet disposition, my daughter was known by the camp personnel. She was greeted each morning by name and it made her feel welcomed! She was also recognized as camper of the day for specific qualities like hard work and determination. In a one week camp, I was impressed with how well camp personnel got to know my daughter and help her improve with her basketball and life skills!

CAMPER EVALUATION

ASA and Nike Basketball Camps are geared for all ages and abilities. Campers are expected to work hard, be receptive to coaching, exhibit discipline, have a strong work ethic, and be serious about basketball. As a staff we pride ourselves in being a teaching camp first with scrimmages and contests will take place throughout the week. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week. In addition, campers will be evaluated and then split up into smaller groups according to age and ability. A closing ceremony will take place on the last day prior to check-out for full day campers. Parents are invited to attend the closing ceremony!

MEDICAL PROTOCOL

Most camps have an athletic trainer on-site to help with illness or injury. In case of an emergency, campers will be transported to the nearest hospital.
