This six-hour camp is a great way to work on your game in front of the CoBL staff and dozens of college coaches at one of the top basketball facilities around. 

The camp will start off with 90 minutes of intense skill work, with drill stations run by trainers who regularly work with high-major Division I and NBA professionals. After that, the participants will be split up into teams, where they will work with area high school and college coaches during the afternoon's game sessions; each team will play three games with 20-minute, running-clock halves, to work on what they learned that morning and continue to show off their games in front of the Division II and III coaches who will be in attendance (and yes, coaches, we will have roster packets for sale).

All participants receive a CoBL Invitational Camp t-shirt.

Cost: $100
