This past month, Lehigh Valley Academy proudly hosted its very first Summer Basketball Camp for students in grades 1–6 — and it was a huge success! Held over two exciting weeks in July, the camp welcomed boys and girls of all skill levels for a fun, fast-paced experience filled with teamwork, training, and Jaguar pride.
Week 1: Little Ballers, Big Energy! (Grades 1–3)
From July 14–18, our youngest Jaguars took the court with confidence and curiosity. Through fun, hands-on stations, campers learned the fundamentals of basketball including:
- Dribbling like pros 🏀
- Team passing drills 🤝
- Shooting on mini hoops 🎯
- Defensive moves that got them grooving 🛡️
We were blown away by their enthusiasm, positive attitudes, and all the big smiles throughout the week. These little ballers truly brought the energy!
Week 2: Train Like a Champion (Grades 4–6)
During Week 2 (July 21–25), our older Jaguars came ready to level up their game. This session focused on advancing their skills and pushing personal limits with:
- Advanced ball handling, shooting, passing, and defense 🎯
- Development drills and refined technique work 💪
- Strength, agility, and conditioning workouts 🏃♂️💨
- Competitive scrimmages and team-building exercises 🏆
With guidance from certified trainers and experienced players, our athletes showed incredible focus, grit, and growth. They trained like champions and made our Jaguar community proud!
A Winning Finish
To celebrate all their hard work, every camper went home with a goodie bag that included a mini basketball, a Jaguar water bottle, and more fun surprises. Of course, they also received an official camp T-shirt and certificate of completion — a symbol of their dedication and progress.
Thank You!
Thank you to our coaches, trainers, and families for making our first summer basketball camp such a fantastic experience. We’re so proud of our student-athletes and can’t wait to bring this energy back next year!
Stay tuned for more athletic opportunities with LVA Jaguars Athletics — and as always, Train Like a Champion!
