The camp was expanded last year from a single week to a two-week camp include different opportunities for kids to better their basketball skills from some of the top coaches and players in the area, and was hugely successful. The camp will be run by AWC Men’s Head Basketball Coach Kelly Green, assistant coaches Humberto Gonzalez and Lance Von Vogt as well as current and former Matador Basketball players. Campers will each receive a free AWC camp basketball and T-shirt.

The second week-known as Session 2-will be a little more specialized, with a morning session and an afternoon session. The morning session will be for boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 10 years of age, will run from 9AM until noon, and costs $80. Meanwhile, the afternoon session will be for boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 15 years of age, will run from 1PM until 4PM, and will also cost $80. Both the Monday registration and the sessions that week will be held at ‘The House’ on the AWC campus.
