To the staff at Elite Camps, My son is 12 years old and basketball has become one of his biggest passions. He has been playing since he was 9 years old and I have watched with delight as he has progressed in this sport. I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to the coaching staff at Elite Camps who have taken him from a normal player to a truly amazing player. I have marveled at the team camaraderie and good sportsmanship that they have developed in all their players. It’s not about one player, it’s about every player working together as a team and I’ve seen this first hand. I have been inspired by this program which helps develop great basketball skills as well as helping to developing well rounded athletes. Elite Camps helps educate and encourage good eating habits and encourages players to make healthy life skill choices. I would highly recommend Elite Camps to any family that would like to teach their child basketball skills along with amazing and important life skills. We couldn’t be more pleased with the wonderful impact Elite Camps has had on our son. With my sincerest thanks,
We have been part of the Elite Camps "family" for five years now. My son Adam was 6 years old when he first attended an Elite Camps summer session. He fell in love with the whole environment; it was skill-building but also fun; disciplined but also social; and it had the best, most fun-loving and personable, child-friendly coaches. He was hooked! Over the years, he participated in countless camp sessions and clinics and became more and more involved. Last year, at only 9 years old, he was fortunate enough to be offered a spot in the EABA Academy program, and now in his 2nd year, he has absolutely flourished in this highly disciplined, skill-building setting. While all of the Elite staff are top-notch, I cannot say enough about the EABA coaches and how much they put their heart and soul into each of "their" kids..... They take great pride in their coaching role and it shows. And the kids are thriving in this environment; the EABA philosophy is clearly working for everyone.
I highly recommend any of the Elite Camps programs to anyone who is considering them. It has been a very big influence in my son's life and his love of the sport. And we all feel part of the Elite Camps extended family!
