For those unable to attend the IMG Basketball Academy's 5-Week Basketball Camps, the 3-Week Summer Development Basketball Camp is a condensed version to help you become a more skilled and better conditioned basketball player.

Each camper will experience three weeks of the core basketball training camp consisting of position-specific drills and instruction, classroom sessions, scrimmages and off-court Physical and Mental Conditioning with IMG Performance Institute specialists, as well as the option to upgrade to THE TOTAL ATHLETE basketball training camp.

Every camp, regardless of length, features a Core basketball training program that includes basketball instruction plus group physical conditioning and mental conditioning with performance specialists. TOTAL ATHLETE training programs are designed to help facilitate increased development and higher performance with one extra hour per day of small-group training in the following: mental toughness, nutrition, speed/movement, communication and vision/reaction.
