Boys’ Basketball Camp

Boys entering kindergarten through eighth grade are invited to hone their basketball skills at Darlington this summer. Our varsity and junior varsity coaches, assisted by high school and college players, drive home fundamental skills—shooting, dribbling, passing, rebounding and defending.

Campers will be given individual attention in station drills stressing critical fundamentals and competitive advantages. Each child will get to compete daily in shooting, skills, and team play. Learn how to work hard and encourage teammates, while enjoying competition—a winning combination that enhances your self-esteem and makes you a successful player.

  • Fundamentals of dribbling, passing, and shooting
  • Proper positioning for defensive play
  • The importance of player positioning on the basketball court
  • Breakdown of guard and post play offensively and defensively
  • T-Shirt and basketball provided

Note: Lunch will be available if you are participating in a morning camp.
