A summary

Open to players aged 8-16, our camp welcomes all abilities, from beginners to those with some experience. Participants will learn new skills, build confidence, and enjoy the game in a safe and supportive environment led by our community coaches.

Each morning, players will sharpen their basketball skills through engaging drills led by our experienced coaches, working alongside others in their age group. After a provided lunch, the afternoon shifts to team play, where players are grouped into teams to compete in fun, fast-paced games, putting their new skills into action!

NON-HAF PLACES

If your child doesn’t meet the eligibility criteria for a funded place, they can still be part of our Winter Camp. We offer a limited number of paid places, giving every young person the chance to enjoy the same high-quality coaching, fun activities and great atmosphere at Leicester Riders Foundation. Places are limited and expected to fill quickly, so we’d encourage you to book early to avoid disappointment. Book a paid place here.
