HSBCAMPS Heads Back to Its Roots at the Community School in Wood River Valley

HSBCAMPS, the youth basketball camp bringing boys and girls face-to-face with the pros while giving back, will return to its roots at the Community School in Sun Valley, Idaho, beginning June 14, 2010. The four-day mini basketball camp session will be followed by a larger HSBCAMPS session to be held at Wood River High School this July. Founded by Carson Sofro, a Community School alumnus, HSBCAMPS held its inaugural camp session three years ago at the school. Since then, HSBCAMPS has become the fastest growing youth basketball camp in the country with nine camps throughout the western United States.

“Everything started at the Community School in Sun Valley and I’ve always wanted to do something there again,” explained HSBCAMPS Director Carson Sofro.  “Although our program has far exceeded the capacity of the school’s gym, we decided to add a smaller camp this year.  We had a few free days, and the ability to raise additional money for the HSBCARES fund, among other charities we support, so we jumped on it. It’s important to note that only the first 50 registrations will be accepted for the mini camp, so don’t delay!”

The HSBCAMPS 2010 Morning Clinic at the Community School will be geared towards teaching and developing the fundamentals of basketball for boys and girls in 4-12 grades. From team competitions to individual contests, players will participate in fun, instructional work under the direction of the HSBCAMPS staff, comprised of collegiate and professional coaches and players.

Sofro added, “The last month at HSBCAMPS has been very exciting with its sister company HSBCARES, INC., securing its 501(c)3 non-profit status, as well as securing an exclusive shoe partnership with Eastbay, and the acquisition of several new high caliber coaches into our all-star staff.”

Hot Shot Basketball Camps (HSBCAMPS, LLC.) is committed to becoming America's leader in bringing young basketball players of all ages face-to-face with the pros. Founded in the summer of 2007 by Director Carson Sofro, HSBCAMPS is now gearing up for its fourth campaign and operations throughout the western United States. Sofro, joined by a cast of Collegiate and Professional coaches and players, delivers an exceptionally high level of instruction to kids (Grades K-12) for a fraction of the price of similar programs. HSBCAMPS is committed to giving back, donating a portion of proceeds to schools and non-profits, and a portion to the HSBCARES fund. Through the HSBCARES fund, HSBCAMPS is able to award camp scholarships, support basketball programs for disabled and underprivileged children, and provide public schools and youth programs with vital basketball equipment.
