Dear Player:
Our week of camp is unique for advanced players because we have you train and compete at a high level of competition. We have numerous AAU players that will come to us at the end of their summer schedule to stay sharp and learn the game for the next level.
In addition, we will have the "Prystal" Scouting Service there to evaluate and rate our players at the camp. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Good luck this summer!
Yours in Hoops,
Mike Gaffey
