US Sports Camps Brings Two New Sports Camps to Miami, Florida this Summer
US Sports Camps has announced the addition of two new sports camps in Miami, Florida this summer at Florida International University. A Nike Basketball Camp and Nike Volleyball camp are set to run simultaneously for two weeks in July, and each sport will utilize their state-of-the-art indoor and outdoor court facilities on the Modesto A. Maidique Campus.
The Nike Basketball Camp at Florida International University will have former NBA player, David Harrison, direct the program. Harrison’s knowledge for the sport comes from over 13 years as a professional player, 5 years of club coaching, and a Division 1 collegiate career. With his extensive basketball resume, players training under him will develop athletically and enhance their skill set.
For the Nike Volleyball Camp at Florida International University, Former Head Coach of Eastern Illinois, Brenda Winekler, is set to run the volleyball program in Miami. Having previously coached for 11 years at a Division 1 school, Winekler is now the founder and Director of Tampa North Volleyball Club and totals over 30+ of volleyball experience. She dedicates her time in making sure each athlete has the opportunity to solidify and improve their volleyball skills while under her instruction.
“We are very excited to be hosting two new sports camps in Florida this summer,” says Steve Pence, President of US Sports Camps. “The Miami location is a summer hot spot for both international and U.S. families, and having a camp at Florida International University means more opportunities to improve their game.”
The two sports camps will have back to back sessions, July 7-11 and July 14 -18, and offers players the chance to stay overnight on campus. This will also be the first year both sports will offer off campus evening activities for each session that includes a trip to Dave N Busters and Bowling & Billiards. Players attending the first week of camp have the opportunity to add on an extra training day, that includes position specific training, or a weekend stay over, which includes the training and two off campus activities, maximizing their camp experience at Florida International University.
Both programs are co-ed, and are offered as a day, 8:30am-4:30pm, and overnight program.
