How to Entertain Kids on the School Holidays

Why are Basketball Holiday Camps so Beneficial?

Basketball camps provide players with and intense snapshot of the appropriate basketball skills and training to assist with the learning of the sport’s fundamentals.  The added and as important benefit is that children will have fun while they learn!  Coaches will work at creating positive memories associated with the sport that will last well beyond the school holiday break.

Basketball holiday camps are the perfect opportunity for children to enhance their skills, either one-on-one or in a team setting.  Instructors will focus on vital basketball skills including ball handling, shooting mechanics, speed, agility and critical defensive strategies in a fun, learning environment.

Holiday Camps are Great for Fundamental Development

School holiday basketball camps can be a critical time for expanding a child’s fundamental skill development.  When we say fundamental, we don’t just mean shooting, passing, footwork, defence, speed and agility.  Coaches will create an environment at which junior athletes will also work on teamwork, resilience, leadership, independence and hard work.  Being exposed to a variety of simulated game-like situations will help “weed out” a player’s on-court weaknesses while building on their overall game.

“Camps will allow for repetition of fundamentals which will provide the athlete with muscle memory, good playing habits and a sound base for development…”

  • Sportsmanship – Remember basic courtesy and good manners? Use your practices and games to reinforce these basic principles. Make sure your players can give a firm handshake with eye contact to officials and opposing coaches, as well as a high five to opposing players.
  • Teamwork – Teach your players that “we over me” is what most often leads to “us over them,” in team sports competition. Encourage your players to be selfless and supportive teammates in both losing and winning efforts.
