What are some of the best summer camps for middle school girls?

 

A large group from Highlands went to Pat Summit's Tenn. summer camp. They all gave it rave reviews.

Sent my daughter last year to Pat Summit's camp. Pat comes to all the sessions and does a picture with your child. Great experience.

My daughter attended Coach Summitt's camp in Knoxville last year. It was unbelievably well organized and Coach Summitt and her staff were very involved. She had a great experience. There were over 700 girls at the camp. She will be attending their elite camp this June which is a shorter more intense experience. She also attended Coach Walz's Elite Camp at U of L over a weekend last June as well. There were very small numbers so there was great one on one attention. He ran the sessions like he runs his regular D1 practices. She said that it was the most intense practices she had ever experienced but she loved every minute of it and learned a great deal. I would expect there will be larger numbers at his camp this year since it his second year in Louisville.

What kind of $ are we talking about?

Is there a Blue Chip camp for girls, I know that camp is very good.

No prices but some info

Team camp June 10-13

Coach Summitt's four day camp is around $500. Most of the weekend Elite camps are around $225-$250. There is a high exposure/blue chip camp in Louisville in July that is around $375. I have found that you need to be careful of the term "blue chip". Sometimes it is used to give a false impression of the level of the camp.

I wouldn't mind sending in the $500.00 range for a really good camp

Not sure of your location. Coach Stowers from Simon Kenton runs a couple of nice camps. One is in June at the school, and he ususally does another later in the summer at Town and Country in Wilder Ky.

The Blue Chip Early Exposure and Fundamentals Camp for Middle School Players is June 26-29 is at Mid-America Sports Center and cost $315 for 4 days http://www.bluechipcamp.com. I believe Coach Summitt's camp is around $625 but not sure.

I heard the same thing about UL elite camp. Small numbers=loads of instruction and he did run it like a college practice. Very benefitial to players who have aspirations of playing at the next level.

When my daughter was younger there were times she brought home camp information carrying the "blue chip" title that she got from her coach. At first I thought she had been indentified and selected to attend a special camp. Come to find out everybody got the same camp information. I have some friends who are at the college level give the same warning about some "blue chip" camps. It does not always mean that the girls attending or the instruction offered is any different than some other camps not carrying that title. There are many excellent camps that do not use that title. Do not simply focus on the title to determine the quality of the camp.
