About the Camp

Two days your athlete won't forget.

Santa Clara Camps brings Santa Clara University men's basketball back to the court for a two-day skills camp. Bronco players KJ Cochran and Francis Chukwudebelu led six hours of on-court instruction across a Saturday and Sunday at our most recent camp.

The camp is built around skill development, real connection, and fun. Athletes work through collegiate-level drills in ball handling, shooting, footwork, and finishing, then compete in game situations with real-time coaching from two active Division I players. Every drill is competitive, engaging, and hands-on.

Open to boys and girls of all skill levels, grades 5 through 10. Every athlete leaves a better player, with a clearer understanding of what it takes to compete at the next level.
