This year's camp will be dedicated to University of Louisville's 1980 and 1986 NCAA Championship Hall of Fame Basketball Coach, Denny Crum. The camp is geared for boys and girls, ages 5-14, and emphasizes individual instruction in all phases of the game. Campers can expect to learn the key fundamentals of being a better basketball player in areas including defense, shooting, passing, ball handling, team work and leadership. In addition to learning skills on the court, Robbie teaches the campers valuable life skills and invites several keynote speakers from the local basketball community who will mentor the attendees throughout the camps.
