What we do
Campers spend the day rotating through stations, playing games, and competing in contests. Every camper plays — every single day.
Dribbling, passing, shooting, defense — the building blocks every great player needs.
Real game reps in small-sided games where every camper gets touches and shots.
Knockout, 3-point shootout, free-throw stations, and the legendary Hornet Hustle award.
Make new friends, learn what it means to be a great teammate, and have a blast doing it.
