Rising Stars Camps
Rising Stars has been offering the finest day and overnight camps for over 25 years. Past staff and speakers reads like a who’s who of basketball. Past
coaching staff has included Jeff & Stan Van Gundy, Rick Pitino, Tom
Penders, Bobby Cremins, and Jim Valvano. Past special guests have
included, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, and Steve Nash. Our instructional programs have also been the feature attraction at
many other camps across the country, including the prestigious Michael
Jordan Camps.
Rising Stars Day Camps are considered to be among the finest available anywhere in the world.
Each
camp strictly limits its enrollment to fewer than 75 boys and girls
with a 5:1 coach to player ratio assuring each child receives the
individual attention they need to improve. All games and instructional sessions are conducted indoors and on regulation courts. A special bonus is having all games officiated by three professional
referees from the Rising Stars officials school.
Every
area needed for skills improvement is presented in a matter that makes
it fun for a child to learn. At a Rising Stars camp learning is also
complemented through playing in controlled scrimmages which gives
campers a great opportunity to apply what they have learned in game
situations. Please click here for a look at a Rising Stars flyer.

doing. We limit enrollment to assure that each child has a ball in
their hands for the best basketball teaching environment possible.
