Back to School Camp

From the Kansas State sports information department:

The Kansas State men’s basketball program will host a Back to School Camp for kids on August 22-23 on the university campus.

The Back to School Camp is designed for both boys and girls in grades kindergarten through eighth grade. The primary emphasis will be basic fundamentals of dribbling, passing, shooting, rebounding and defense. The cost is $50 for each camper.

Second-year head coach Frank Martin and his staff will instruct and direct the camp, while all returning K-State players, including rising senior Darren Kent and sophomores Ron Anderson, Jacob Pullen, Jamar Samuels and Dominique Sutton, will also work with the campers.

Individuals can register for any of these camps by calling the men’s basketball office at 785.532.6531 or toll free at 1.800.651.4667. Individuals may also download a camp brochure as well as register online at www.kstatesports.com.
