Basketball Summer Camps

Basketball Summer Camps for Kids & Teens

Each summer, thousands of campers hit the court to improve their basketball skills, make new friends, and learn the value of good sportsmanship. Basketball summer camps help kids and teens develop all of the skills necessary to play the game - shooting, passing, dribbling, rebounding, and defense. Older (and taller) campers may even mix in a dunk or two. Taught by experienced coaches and student athletes, basketball summer camps can help beginning, intermediate, and advanced players take their game to the next level. Campers leave basketball summer camps with increased self confidence, skills, and an overall appreciation of the game and what it takes to play.

Ages, Tuition, and Session Length at Basketball Summer Camps

Overnight basketball summer camps typically welcome campers between the ages of 7 and 18. Most basketball camps group participants by age and ability level, ensuring ideal learning and social opportunities.

Sleep-away basketball camps are often held at traditional summer camp sites or on school campuses. Sessions are available for 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 7 weeks. The cost of each program varies considerably based on coaches, facilities, and affiliations. Families can expect to spend anywhere from $300 to $1,300 per week on their child's basketball camp experience.

Choosing the Best Basketball Summer Camp

While there are hundreds of great basketball summer camps throughout the United States, there are several key factors to consider when choosing an appropriate camp. Is basketball the only sport taught at the camp, or will campers try a variety of activities? Are games played casually, or is there a strong emphasis on winning? Are campers taught by professional basketball coaches, or by student athletes?
