One on One Basketball presents its 2nd annual overnight camp and first ever Father-Son Basketball camp. Located at the 130 acre Episcopal High School campus, the camps feature One on One’s internationally recognized basketball instruction. These programs have evolved from over a decade of One on One’s Summer Hoops Camps at the Tysons Sport & Health Club and other locations across the region.

While player development is the immediate aim, overall development, on and off the court, is what makes the One on One system so successful. Founder and former professional player Arthur Jackson states “our first overnight camp was a big success but the highlight for me was the quality time I got to spend with my son in the dorms, at meals, and especially on the court. So this year along with our week long camp we are adding a Father-Son Camp.” Coaching is difficult and coaching your own child brings the challenge to a higher level. One on One recognizes this fact and will create a positive experience where fathers and sons can bond while building the kids’ skill level and their confidence.

The Northern Virginia Basketball Camp caters to boys ages 7-16 and provides a day camp option. The program includes individual skills training, daily games and contests. Evening fun sessions focus on teamwork and sportsmanship to make the camp an enjoyable experience for the kids. 8th grade camper Austin Wiles says, “One on One is the best basketball camp! The coaches are awesome and really helped me understand the fundamentals of the game. I came home with a whole different attitude about basketball.” The Father-Son Camp is a week end camp designed for enhancing coaching skills and bonding for dads and boys 7-16 years old. This camp features games, Father/son contests, Father vs. son contests and stations focusing on “Driveway Drills”.

Northern Virginia Overnight Camp July 6-10 is 5 with a day camp option for 0. The Father-Son Camp runs July 10-12 and is 0 for both Dad and son. Additional children are only 0.00 each. Team and group discounts available. One on One Basketball runs other day camps throughout the region. Call 202-244-BALL or visit http://www.1on1basketball.com/dc.

Ryan Carr, director of scouting for the NBA’s Indiana Pacers, shares his insights on being a camper and coach at NBC Camps. “When I think about being successful in basketball and in life, I have been lucky enough to have a few great influences. One of these was the chance to come to NBC Camps as a kid and learn how to pay attention to detail, how to work hard, how to treat others, and how to achieve and surpass goals. NBC Camps not only gives athletes the best tools to be a better basketball player, athletes are given the best tools to be a better person. It has been one of the privileges of my life to be connected with Fred Crowell and NBC Camps for the past 23 years.”
