Camp Philosophy

Our mission at Saint Mary's University Jr. Huskies Camps is to teach people how to play basketball.  We provide, in a structured environment, instruction on the fundamentals of basketball with a focus on individual skill and team concepts.  We then try to provide, through games and contests, an opportunity for the campers to test their skills in a competitive environment.  We believe that success in all walks of life is attainable in some measure through dedication and hard work and try to instill this attitude in the campers.  At the same time, we believe that an "all work and no play" approach is inappropriate.  By grouping the campers according to age and ability, we try to provide a balanced mix of instruction, competition and fun that is right for everyone.

Skills Sessions

Solid fundamental skills are critical to success as a basketball player.  Consequently we spend two full hours each day dedicated to the teaching of the skills of basketball in a structured, instructional environment.  The skills worked on include shooting, passing, ball handling, screening, offensive footwork, defense, rebounding and transition.  The rest of our schedule allows the campers to test their skills in various competitive situations.
