Basketball is BIG at Camp Lohikan!

Girls, boys, beginners, advanced players...

EVERYONE LOVES BASKETBALL!

And if you’re looking to improve your skills this summer or just have fun playing the sport of basketball, this is the camp for YOU!

Daily instruction and recreational play is available! Campers participating in the elective program can choose as much time at basketball as they want. Instructional classes in beginner through advances skill levels are available throughout the day. So is recreational play!

When it comes to instruction, every camper is evaluated and placed in a group with other players of similar age and abilities. Beginner/intermediate skill classes concentrate on basketball fundamentals – shooting, passing, dribbling, rebounding, and defense. Campers with advanced skills work on drills involving ball handling, conditioning, post moves, court spacing, defensive keys, team offense and defense strategies.

Lohikan’s basketball program is directed by a professional coach and staffed with college-enrolled basketball instructors who have coaching experience and play on the college level.

In addition to instructional classes and recreational play periods, we also operate an active intra-camp basketball league program. Interested players of all skill levels have numerous opportunities to play on a team.

The inter-camp games program is also a popular part of the program for many campers. Camp Lohikan participates in the Wayne County Camp Association’s Sports Tournaments and fields girl's and boy's basketball teams in all age brackets. Over 20 camps participate in the sports tournaments and the games played with rival camps are exciting and competitive. They are also perfect opportunities to practice sportsmanship and teamwork.

LOHIKAN'S HIGH FIVE BASKETBALL CLINIC

If you’re interested in becoming a better basketball player, then you’ve got to attend Lohikan’s High-5 Basketball Clinic which is scheduled every 2 weeks of the summer.

The High-5 Basketball Clinic is a 2 day clinic where participants focus their attention and energies entirely on practicing basketball skills. One-on-one and small group instruction, specialty drills, and scrimmages are part of the 3 to 4 hour program scheduled each day. The clinic gets rave reviews and the results are dramatic as reported by the participants. Of course, the fact that every participant receives an awesome High-5 Basketball Clinic T-Shirt upon completion of the clinic may have something to do with the success of the program!!!

Camp Lohikan’s Basketball Facilities

Lohikan’s basketball facilities include 4 regulation basketball courts.
Three of the basketball courts are brand new and equipped with lights for night tournament play and evening activities. These courts are also equipped with adjustable goals which are utilized when instructing young campers.
One indoor basketball court is located in our Sports Center and is situated adjacent to the canteen/game room. This convenient location allows campers to play basketball or shoot baskets during the canteen/game room free-time period.
