Discover your child’s active interests in basketball, where your children learn a fast break of skills. This camp, designed specifically for children ages 4-6, will provide your children with the opportunity to learn the basics of ball handling, passing, shooting, defense, and more. Coaches are trained to maximize the full experience basketball has to offer and to deliver fun in a safe environment where children learn life skills through sports. Each day of camp, the kids will take steps towards becoming athletes by learning skills and applying them in unique games. This camp is a blast--most children cannot get enough!

Patrick had an absolutely glorious time every day. WOW! Thank you so much! He was just thrilled to pieces every time he came home--very eager to go outside and "practice dribbling, just like coach said!" Can't wait for next year! TERRIFIC WORK!!!!

My son had a great time and learned to dribble a basketball, something we have been trying to teach all summer! I wish you had more than one week at that location. Christopher loved it and we will definitely do it next year.

Aniya had a fabulous time at camp. She loved the coach. She came home and shared things that they learned. She even slept with her basketball for a couple nights. She is very active and enjoys many sports so this was a great activity for her. Thanks.
