​What is our mission?
Our mission is to make a positive impact on the lives of youths, families and the communities we hold camps. By fostering a commitment to young people that will promote self-esteem, social awareness, higher learning, healthy lifestyles, and give athletes basketball skills and drills to take their game to the next level.
Cities- Our Future Camp Events
  • Houston, Tx- Oct. 31st-Nov. 1st, 2020
  • Minneapolis, Minnesota- TBA
  • Davenport, Iowa- TBA
We hope you will join us in our mission. 
          We endeavor to enrich student-athletes both academically and athletically.  What good is it to help an athlete become great at sports, if the athlete is not recruitable academically?  During our camps, we stress the importance of academics and the need to pursue post-secondary education through our Collegiate compass exercises and guest speakers.  Less than 1.8 percent of student-athletes are blessed enough to play professional sports in their lives. Competitive athletics is great way to earn a great education.  We want to go a step further and actually help increase the number of athletes that have the skills and confidence to pursue degrees.
            We firmly believe basketball is truly an “art”, especially when played the right way.  It is a beautiful thing to behold and experience.  By connecting basketball camps with educational enrichment, we aim to change the way student-athletes are prepared for life.
