Best There Is, Best There Was, Best There’ll Ever Be
Just finished my 4th camp as an OC, and have loved every one. So unique in their own way, and all are so inspiring. Tools for the game and tools for life. Literally every single director is phenomenal and they cater to all ages. You can’t start too young and you can never be too old. There’s no better camp out there!
Great camp atmosphere and welcoming to all!
PGC's attention to welcome all of the campers was well structured and a sigh of relief for the first time overnight campers! The details, daily schedule and consistent follow up, really says it all. Well done PGC!
Great camp!
My girls had their first day of camp and came home saying it was so fun! They learned a lot about communication, looking up the court, being aggressive offensively, talking loudly :) and being an "A" type player. They watched examples of professionals, practiced the skills, then used it in game play. The camp is what it says it is :) . Great!

Incompetent Staff
I sent 8 players from my team to this camp. I was told that my entire team would be staying in the same pod and was given a confirmation via email that it was all set up. My wife called me during check-in that they had put my son in a different room by himself in a different pod from his teammates. After showing the staff confirmation emails, she was told that it would be fixed that night after registration. It was not fixed because when the staff went to move the two random kids from our team pod to put my son back in there, the kids threw temper tantrums and started crying and the staff left my son in the room by himself. My son not wanting to be alone spent the first two nights of camp sleeping on the couch in the team's pod. No one from PGC called us to tell us they had NOT made the change. So when we spoke to him and he told us he had been sleeping on the couch because he did not get moved we reached out to PGC and they told us it would be handled. Their idea of handling it was to remove another kid from the team pod to room with my son. Making the situation even worse. So instead of honoring what we were told, they felt as the two random kids in the team pod were more important. They said they would keep me informed and did not. Then after the fact they offered me $100 discount the next time I wanted to come. When I threatened to leave a negative review, they offered me a free camp. Why would I come back to this camp, when this is how you treated my son, number 1 and dismissed the fact that I was responsible for sending 8 kids to your camp and two random kids were treated better? Why did I have to threaten to leave a bad review to be taken seriously? If I told you I would never attend another camp, why do you think a free camp would entice me? My son was also sprayed in the face with Lysol and he reported it to a counselor and nothing happened (he could have been seriously and/or permanently injured)... they're lucky a negative review is the only thing they are receiving and not a lawsuit from my attorney.

Safe. Full Immersion. Game Changer.
My son is going to the 7th grade and he was most concerned about feeling safe. All of the coaches gave us warm welcomes as entered the first day and he immediately felt at home. He loved that he had a key access to his room and a private place to shower. Other than that, the camp was exactly what he needed. It stretched him beyond his limitations because he has never been fully immersed for 12-14 hour days before. This upcoming basketball season, I expect to see more leadership, higher energy from tip off, better decision making and better use of his dribble.

Run, don’t walk, RUN to Register your player for PGC camp
If you’re hesitating about sending your player to PGC, you can put those fears to rest. Hands down absolutely the BEST camp I’ve ever attended. The format is what sets PGC apart from traditional camps. All my players improved and had a good time working hard.

Outstanding training for any athlete who truly wants to improve their basketball skills and mind! The PGC directors and staff are great at teaching in the classroom and gym, holding the athletes to a high standard of conduct, and clearly care about them.

False advertising
I am a disappointed parent... The marketing of this camp makes you think it is fine for advanced players but it is too basic for a kid who already plays in a travel club. I signed him up for Point Guard College, but he said it was basic drills, and got bored. I wish they did not present this camp as if your advanced player would learn to excel. It is an expensive camp. Just say it is for beginners to mid level players. It feels like something close enough to scam.

Discipline
Pgc shares good information and has great drills. But the thing I love most about Pgc is they demand what they ask to be done. A kid cannot attend a camp without getting better to some extent because of that.
This camp is what young players need !!
From start to finish PGC Basketball is the most organized and well thought out camp my daughter has ever participated in. They know what young basketball players need to break open their game !!
