Heartland Orthopedic Specialists and Summer Academy have collaborated to provide a comprehensive program that is designed specifically to help teenage athletes transition from their body weight-dominated youth exercises into a more dynamic external-load resistance training program that is geared toward their sport of choice. This program will focus on long-term athletic development of each athlete through core stability, quickness, strength and power to increase performance while decreasing injury risk.

Youth League reinforces and builds on the fundamental principles and team concept that we focus on in Cardinal Basketball Camp. Each league day will consist of one hour of instruction/skill development work, followed by 30 minutes of pick-up games (3-on-3 and 5-on-5)

"AGB" Camp is an opportunity for your athlete to work with the Cardinal Varsity coaching staff on skills and advanced offense and defense techniques. 70% of the camp will be drill work, and the other 30% will be small sided 1 on 1, 2 on 2, and 3 on 2 game play, where players will be put in game-like scenarios that will improve their IQ and decision making. The K-3rd grade session will focus on the basic skills and concepts. The 4th-6th grade session will work on the intermediate skills and team execution. 7th-8th grade will work on advanced offensive and defensive skills, team execution and developing a "Next Level" attitude.
