2022 Youth Summer BASKETBALL CAMP

Our community is so fortunate to have talented, experienced individuals who want to invest in our community.


Islander Glenn Ryerson has once again offered to conduct a summer basketball camp - free of charge - for our island kids!


Anderson Island Park & Recreation District is proud to sponsor and support this event. Size and structure of teams will be based on the number of participants, but we know there will be two camps - one for elementary-age kids, and another for middle- and high-school-aged.


See details for each camp below.

GET REGISTERED!

Parent/guardian contact Glenn Ryerson (wfr611@gmail.com / 561-843-1383) to indicate their child/children will be participating.


Please provide:

  • Parent/guardian name
  • Email address 
  • Phone number 
  • Each child's name and age


Sneakers are required and we suggest bringing a water bottle. 


Fun First!

Glenn knows that to build community sports, it has to start with making it fun and accessible for kids, slowly building skills and engagement until there can be more formal matches or tournaments.


We took some lessons learned from our first year, but the heart of this camp remains the same - flexibility, engagement and fun are what will drive our structure.


  • We want kids to show up and connect.
  • We want anyone - at any skill level - to feel like it’s a safe place to try new things and learn.
  • We want to encourage teamwork and a supportive environment. 
  • Any child improving their skills by participating in all 9 sessions will receive a personalized “Pursuit Of Basketball Excellence” trophy at the end of the summer basketball camp. 
  • Children who participate in at least 7 of the sessions will receive “Dedication In Improving Basketball Skills” certificates.  
  • Do you have schedule conflicts? Sign up anyway and just communicate when you can’t attend - we can adjust for that!
  • Do you have questions about anything else that might keep you from signing up? Contact Glenn - he’s happy to answer any questions.


Someday - maybe this year…maybe years down the road - we might have have a vibrant community of friendly competition in basketball matches and tournaments, but that has to build over time. 


For now, we want to give island kids some fun, support, activity, and skills. 

CAMP SESSIONS

  

The camp is free for all boys and girls ages 8-12, regardless of skill level. Our goal is to have fun while helping to improve basketball skills. With the older group, we'll also be playing some practice games and then holding a tournament. 


Consideration will be given to add more dates based on participation and interest.


  • WHEN: Monday & Wednesday mornings from 9:30-10:30am
  • WHERE: Anderson Island Elementary Ball Field


The dates for the five-week camp are as follows:

  • WEEK 1: June 20 / June 22
  • WEEK 2: June 27 / June 29
  • WEEK 3: July 6
  • WEEK 4: July 11  / July 13
  • WEEK 5: July 18 / July 20

A LIttle About Glenn

In high school and college, Glenn ran all aspects of his local high school summer basketball league. He played D3 college basketball, was head coach of the JV men's team his senior year in college, and later coached his daughter's rec teams.


In 2021, he approached AIPRD about bringing his skills to island youth, and ran a 4-week basketball camp.


His goal for our basketball camp is fun, skills improvement and sending at least two participants to the NBA/WNBA. Glenn is confident that he can accomplish two of these objectives.
