Q: Do you provide transportation?
A: No, parents are required to bring their child
to camp, check them in and also check them out.
Q: What if my child turns 8 years old after the camp
dates?
A: We will accept your child, as long as he turns 8 in the same
calendar year as the camp.
Q: When do you usually sellout?
A: Based on the quick response, we are anticipating
to sellout in early May, but we cannot guarantee that the camp won’t
sellout sooner this year. You may call or email us around that time
to see if we still have openings.
Q: I sent in my application and tuition payment for my
child. When and how will I know if my child has been accepted?
A: You will receive an email confirmation once
we have received payment. Please bring this confirmation with you
to the first day of camp.
Q: What kind of supervision do campers receive?
A: Campers are always escorted by their own coach
to all destinations during the day.
Q: Is there any medical/training staff at the camp?
A: We have an athletic training staff, which includes
a Nationally Certified Athletic Trainer, on duty at all times.
Q: Is lunch included with the price?
A: Lunch on the last day of camp is included in
the price but campers are to bring their own lunch Monday thru Thursday.
Q: If my child has special meal requirements such as allergies
to certain food, eating Kosher or being a vegetarian, what do I
do?
A: You will be responsible for packing their lunch
each day of the camp.
Q: Can my child bring electronic games, MP3 players,
television, etc.?
A: There will not be down time throughout the day
for these items so we do not recommend bringing them. We recommend
not bringing anything of value as we will also not be responsible
for lost or stolen items.
Q: Does my child need extra money at camp and where should
he keep it?
A: We have a camp store that is open twice daily
for kids to purchase drinks, snacks, gear, etc. We require campers
to put their money into our Camp Bank, where they can withdraw their
money at specified free-time periods. At the end of camp, any unspent
money will be returned to you in full. This eliminates the possibility
of any money being stolen by another camper. If you decide that
your child should hold onto the money, we will not be responsible
for it being lost or stolen.
Q: Will my child be at a disadvantage if he is not very
good?
A: Campers are assigned to leagues based on both
age & ability thru a draft process on the first day of camp. We
try to keep each team to a maximum of eight players and each camper
will play the same amount of time in each game. Our camp also offers
exclusive NBA game night experience opportunities that are available
to all campers. Besides learning basketball skills, campers have
the choice to learn from real NBA game night broadcasting and game
operation crew. There is something for everyone!
Q: Can my child move up or down in leagues?
A: On the first day, after the coaches have evaluated
the talent and drafted the teams as evenly as possible, they will
ask some children whether they would like to move up, move down
or stay in the same league.
Q: May I change my session?
A: You are able change your session(s) at anytime
as long as space is available in the session of your choice. Please
contact us by phone or email with your request.
Q: Can I cancel my registration?
A: If you cancel your registration, you will not
receive a refund. Campers who have to cancel or leave camp due to
an illness or injury must provide a doctors note in order to receive
a prorated refund based on the number of days spent at camp. There
are no refunds if your child voluntarily leaves camp.
Q: Where is the coaching staff from?
A: The coaches are from many states with different
levels of experience-college, high school and middle school.
Q: Who are the Guest Speakers?
A: There is generally one speaker each day (Current
or former Wizards players/coaches). Due to players’ off-season schedules,
we will not know who will appear until we are in session at camp.
Q: May I visit the camp during the week?
A: The camp is only open to parents and visitors
on the last day of camp when awards are given away.
Q: What time is registration on the first day?
A: From 8:00 am to 9:00 am. If you happen to be
running late, please do not worry. We will register your child with
no problems when you do arrive. We would rather you travel safely
than to rush.
Q: What time should I pick up my child on the last day?
A: Camp will end after the awards around 2-3pm
(subject to change)
Q: What is the parking situation at camp sessions help
at the Verizon Center?

Center parking entrance, located on the 6th st block of the building.
We encourage parents to find street parking if possible.

A: We recommend that all campers bring a book bag
or duffle bag to camp that can hold all of their personal belongings
(shoes, extra shirt, camera, etc.)
