Welcome to Philly Point Guard Camp, a basketball program for boys and girls ages 6-18, who want to work on their game and to continue to improve. We turn campers into basketball players. Our focus will be on making your elementary school, middle school, junior high and high school-aged sons or daughters smarter and better basketball players by letting them know that whatever you want to achieve in life comes through hard work. Between our summer camps, our year-round Player Development programs, and our boys AAU program, we will teach your young athletes all about effort, fundamentals, conditioning, teamwork and sportsmanship during each of our many sessions. We will be at different sites throughout the Philadelphia-New Jersey region, making it convenient for everyone in the area to attend.
For the past four years, Philly Point Guard Camp has been holding Player Development sessions in the Fall and Spring to help youngsters work on their skill sets and conditioning. This has been a very successful program in that youngsters who might not otherwise have done so without our instruction, are making their school and travel teams. We feel that it's not all about talent, but all about effort. Our 90-minute sessions are meant to make sure every child has a good time while working hard. And they will be instructed by coaches who have or who are coaching on either the high school or college level, or have at least played college ball. We guarantee that if you sign up for and attend all 10 sessions, you will get better!

BOYS AAU
Besides Player Development sessions and summer camps, we also provide a boys' AAU program that incorporates our Spring Player Development Program with the tournaments in which we'll be entered. Each of our teams will play in at least six tournaments from the end of March to the first or second week of June. We also hold weekly AAU practices as well as our Player Development sessions. The amount of teams we will field, and the breakdown of age groups, will depend on how many registrants we receive. This year, we fielded fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and 11th grade teams. We will not turn down anyone who wishes to play and participate in our program. We feel that too many youngsters are being told by adults that they're not good enough to play. We feel that decision should be made by the youngster himself. If you have the passion to play and are willing to put in the effort necessary to become a better player, we are more than happy to provide you with that opportunity. If after a youngster has done all that and comes to the decision that he isn't up to the task, that's fine. At least it was his decision. While we like to win just as much as the next guy, we understand it's not the only thing. All we want is for every one of our players to get better, become more confident and understand what it takes to take his game to the next level.

If you are interested in playing AAU ball, please contact us at 888-671-9781 or email us at campinfo@phillypointguardcamp.com.

Spring Player Development
Our summer camps are all about helping you get better. They are constructed to be a total learning experience. The only basketball we play all week is No-Dribble. This eliminates ball hogs and makes sure that each person touching the ball trusts his or her teammates. You can't help teammates get better if they never touch the ball. Our camps are held Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and we will be offering the best group of guest instructors in the Mid-Atlantic region to go with our exceptional coaching staff.
