What should my child bring to camp each day?
We’ve got all the basketball gear covered. Your child just needs to come to camp dressed in comfortable sportswear and trainers. Of course, they’re welcome to bring their own basketball, too.
Please pack a lunch in a clearly labelled container (note: we have a nut-free policy). Children should also bring their own water bottle. We’ll provide water refills and healthy snacks throughout the day.
How does the camp improve my child’s basketball skills?
On the court, children can develop all-important core skills, such as dribbling, passing, shooting, rebounding and footwork. There’s also a big focus on game awareness and strategy, so players can learn how to read the game and make smart plays, and get a deeper understanding of game rules.
Beyond that, children get the opportunity to take on challenges and succeed with their teammates. We see them build strong friendships, a sense of unity, and a new level of resilience – all things they carry with them through life. Often, the growth we see in just three days is epic.
