Sponsored by Anaconda Sports®, we invite you to join us for a first class event to be held in beautiful Northern New York at SUNY Potsdam and Clarkson University. Our previous events were a huge success and we anticipate a full field this year.
GAMES:Each team is guaranteed four games. Boys and girls divisions will be organized by the following age groups: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17. In addition, A & B levels in each age division will be established (if possible) to allow teams of similar caliber to compete against each other. We will attempt to form A & B pools of five teams for each age group. If possible, each team will play all the respective teams in their pool.
We will make every effort to provide a top quality event by limiting the number of teams, providing highly capable timers and scorers, and utilizing only certified referees. Note: Not all teams are scheduled for Friday games. We will try to accommodate reasonable scheduling requests if possible. INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION: Invitations are being mailed to various Northeastern states in the U.S. and to the Ontario and Québec provinces of Canada. We expect to have several Canadian teams in each age group.

Description:
For the past 39 years, the Potsdam Bears International Summer Basketball Camp has attracted over 11,500 campers from the small towns of northern New York, 20 different states, the provinces of Ontario and Québec, and around the world. As one of the most highly rated camps in the country, players will learn the fundamentals of basketball for the 40th consecutive year. Last summer 350 players learned skills through individual and group instruction from a staff of over 65 top-notch college and high school coaches.

Since many of the campers are from Canada, this co-ed camp is truly international in flavor. It is one of the only camps in the country where students from both countries have an opportunity to learn about their different cultures and play on the same team. Although both boys and girls attend camp in the same session, the skill groups and teams are not co-ed. Campers will be grouped by age and/or ability level to ensure their maximum development. In addition, an Olympic-size pool, a state-of-the-art weight and exercise room, indoor and outdoor tracks, and a modern athletic training room are available for all campers.
