OUR CAMPS / EVENTS

PHILOSOPHY: Our camps provide a service that everyone in our community can afford. Our goal is for all campers to work hard and feel good about themselves in a safe, disciplined, highly structured and motivated environment of learning and fun. We place the child and his or her personal development ahead of the game. Positive encouragement and measured improvement in the fundamental skills are trademarks of our camp, as well as players learning to work together in a team setting while playing games and tournaments.
TEACHING EMPHASIS: All of our camps offer a solid foundation of fundamental skill development for beginning players and a strong challenge for advanced players. Our teaching progression takes into account age and skill differences. Players are grouped by age, sex, ability and personal request. Young kids who begin in our Lil' Dribblers program and progress through with our camps twice a year will have a tremendous advantage once they begin school programs.

Below you will see a brief description of our camps and events.

Whatever the age, we have the camp.
In most cases all grades have an option twice a year for their development.
Our camps will include the following: Positive Communication, Goal Setting, Good Manners, Fundamentals, Defensive Footwork, Discipline and Work Ethic, Positive Attitude, Team Attitude, Respect for Parents, Shooting Skills, Games and/or Tournaments, Listening Skills, Building Good Character!

Some of our camps are PRIVATE meaning they are open only to the school or group who has brought HOOPZONE in and do not appear within these camp pages or calendar.

Our goal is for every student to leave with a positive experience, realizing that lessons learned on the court can help shape their lives off the court as well. Education is a fundamental element of HOOPZONE Basketball, an element emphasized and ingrained into every student’s mind.
