The hardwood comes alive in summertime.

The Coupeville High School gym will be alive with the sounds of squeaking shoes July 18-20, as high-level NBC Camps offers a basketball event for kids ages 8-12.

Cost is $230 per camper, which covers 18 hours of hoops action.

Each day runs from 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM, with first-day check-in at 8:30 AM.

Campers should bring a basketball, a sack lunch and snacks, water bottle, and a signed medical waiver — unless their parent has already completed it while registering online.

NBC Camps, which launched in 1971, focuses on “training the total athlete” with camps “elevating skill level through intensive skill training.”

“We break down each skill into specific portions which ingrain the skill and creates ‘muscle memory’,” NBC Camps says in its brochure.

“The intensity of our camps help maximize the “heightened” environment necessary for growth.

“Our camps are high energy, fun, and unlike any other camp experience. Come elevate your game and change your life.”

Players are divided according to age, skill, and experience, with a typical ratio of one NBC coach per 10 athletes.

Grab a ball and get to work.

While the COVID-19 pandemic shut down schools across Washington state, Coupeville youth basketball players are being encouraged to keep working on their ballhandling skills.

CHS coaches, with a big assist from middle school and high school Wolf hoops stars, are launching the Spring 2020 Youth Dribbling Challenge.

“It’s a collaborative effort, Coupeville athletes and coaches introducing this together,” CHS varsity boys coach Brad Sherman said. “Athletes willingly stepping up to keep working with youth basketball players!”

Each week, Sherman will post new videos showing current and former Wolf basketball players demonstrating skills for younger athletes to practice.

The videos will be on the Coupeville Youth Basketball page on Facebook (you can request to join) and here on Coupeville Sports.

If young Wolf athletes don’t have a basketball, they can check out a ball for the spring and summer.

Parents can contact Sherman at bsherman@coupeville.k12.wa.us.

“We hope you have fun with this and look forward to staying connected with you,” Sherman said.
