Fundamental Basketball Taught The Right Way!

A Gamechanger for Young Basketball Players!

Athletes on the Rise has the top Basketball Camps, and we have the best Fundamental Basketball Camps in the USA.  These Fundamental Basketball Camps are designed for 4th-6th graders who are interested in the game of basketball and want to improve!

We teach players the basics in the right way!  This means your child will get the feedback they deserve while being in an environment that fosters hard work, discipline, respect, responsibility, teamwork, and LOVE OF THE GAME.

Every player is different which is why we use an individualized process to help provide the most effective fundamental basketball camp in the country to improve your athlete’s basketball abilities.

Since this is a basketball fundamentals camp, we go through a process to ensure everyone will develop better fundamentals.

The AOTR Youth Fundamental Basketball Skill Development Process:

  1. Develop Stance, Footwork, & Balance.
  2. Develop Feel.
  3. Rep it Out! (Variability & Reactions are Key to Transfer!)
  4. Compete!

At each level, there is an attention to detail in the cues and feedback given that you will not find in other camps.  In this fundamental basketball skills camp, we are looking to develop a base and progress it to more variable, reactive, and competitive elements so athletes build resilience in their abilities.

We will always adjust to the athlete to find the sweet spot of learning.  We look for an approximate 70% success rate.  If an athlete is above that percentage, we make it more difficult.  If an athlete is below that percentage, we adjust so the athlete is more capable of having success.

Along the way, athletes are held accountable for the basics:  eye contact, respect for one another, working hard, staying focused, being a good teammate, and encouraging one another.

The end goal is for all athletes to walk away with a joy for the game, improved skills, and a solid understanding of how to practice on their own time!

WHAT WE DO IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN ANYONE ELSE.  WHY?

  2. High Level Adaptation & Transfer – You will build a strong base, learn to FEEL your successes, and understand the importance of holding a standard and increasing stress, variability & reaction to build resilient skills!
  3. We Care More – Your success is our priority.  If you win, so do we!  We put EVERYTHING into the development and execution of these camps.  Our programs are ALWAYS improving as a result of the work we put in behind the scenes to improve ourselves.
