Safe Summer Camp

Our annual outdoor basketball program provides the following
benefits to our student athletes:

Drills and Skills

Our sessions provide the participants with instruction on dribbling, passing, shooting, defensive footwork, hand-eye coordination, and the overall fundamentals of basketball.

Sessions are age-appropriate and led by experienced instructors such as former high school, collegiate, and professional players.

Mentorship
Beyond the court, some participants are paired

with coaches, volunteers,
or former athletes who

provide encouragement

and guidance regarding

their basketball skills, academics, and how

to make good choices

in life.

Official Camp Gear

Every participant will receive an official NBNB program t-shirt for the drills and skills sessions, along with a team jersey for the Basketball Jamboree.

Our custom-designed t-shirts and jerseys are stylish, unique, and created with today’s urban youth in mind. Players proudly wear the NBNB logo as a symbol of teamwork and pride both on and off the court.

Guest Speakers
NBNB attracts local elected officials, community leaders, and hometown celebrities who speak to the participants and share words of wisdom and encouragement to navigate life’s challenges.

We are especially grateful to all NBNB alumni who visit and share their life experiences and accomplishments on and off the court.

Practice Sessions

Additional practice sessions are sometimes offered in smaller groups to give participants an opportunity

to review drills and boost their skills and confidence.

Referrals to

Community Resources

Upon request, our team will connect families to local community resources that provide academic support, mental health services, and youth enrichment opportunities to help every child succeed both on and off the court.

Food & Drinks

Water, Gatorade, and a

light lunch are provided after each session to help keep participants fueled, refreshed, and hydrated following outdoor activities in the summer heat.

Back to School Backpacks

Every participant leaves our camp prepared for the school year with an NBNB branded backpack and school supplies because success in the classroom matters!

New Friendships

NBNB encourages meaningful relationships among participants and their families while they grow socially and emotionally both on and off the court.

This program is more than basketball...it is an opportunity to build lasting friendships.

Professional Photos
Our professional photographer will take team photos during the Basketball Jamboree. The photos will be available
