Father/Son Camp

[catsfan20]

I was interested in taking my oldest son to BCG's Father/Son Camp next year. Does anyone know the minimum age requirement for the children at this camp? Thanks.

It appears that 9 years old is the minimum/

Eligibility
NCAA legislation allows any young man who has not begun his freshman year in college to participate in the UK Basketball Camp (ages 9-19).

I'm surprised on how cheap the camp is, isn't it only a couple hundred dollars? I know someone who took his son there and they got to play with most of the players (Crawford, Bradley, Harris, etc), said they were extremely approachable and friendly. Man, that is a heck of a deal, I hope they keep it up for another 8 years so I can take my son there. That has to be an awesome experience.

I attended Pitino's camps growing up and enjoyed them. I was also a regular at Kyle Macy's camp and Don/Brian Lane's camp. Thanks goes to Kyle for teaching me how to shoot properly (especially free throws) and to Don/Brian for teaching good fundamentals. Still friends with Kyle and Brian to this day. :thumbup:

I would love to take my son to one of these when he is old enough. He is 6 now so I only have three years to convince the wife it is a good idea. I am not sure who would be more excited, me or my son??

My brother and his son went several years ago and won the free throw contest. Got pictures with Tubby. Can't wait for next year and him to take his other son with pictures of him and Coach G + stories.

My brother got Rondo'd. His competitive spirit was about to kick in for retaliation until he realized it probably wouldn't be a good idea to potentially hurt a UK player in basketball. My brother is not a small man and he had it in his head to "take him out." Anybody but a UK player in a pickup game and he would have.

Sounds just like me. My oldest son is 6, and I can't wait to take him. I guess we will both be there the same year.
