Read what some past campers/parents have said about the DRIVE Camps:
"I thought DRIVE without a doubt was the best camp I have gone to. During the 5 weeks, I made huge progressions in my game and all the coaches did a phenomenal job of teaching and encouraging the players.The attitude and atmosphere at the camp was always so positive and it made it an awesome basketball environment to learn from some of Canada's best. I think every player there got better."
Lucian Sauciuc: - DRIVE University Fall '05 MVP, Now a DRIVE Coach
"DRIVE is the best camp I have ever attended. I would recommend it to anyone who is trying to step their game up or just to have fun. The coaches are very friendly and they make the camp fun for everyone."
Kyle Grewal: Enver Creek/UCFV - DRIVE University Spring '05 MVP
"Honestly I think DRIVE was the best camp I have ever been to. I'm glad I was able to go and I can't wait until the next camp! DRIVE helped my game so much. Coming to DRIVE allowed me to see how much work has to be done so I can be the best! I used to think that all basketball camps were the same but DRIVE was different. They have great coaches who love basketball and demonstrate that passion to us kids. All the drills and stations are creative and allow for me to work on game situations. DRIVE is the BEST!"
Andrew Brown: Grade 10 -Brittania
Complete Player Camp 2007
"Thanks to DRIVE Basketball, our daughter, Josie, regained her confidence on the court. Your course is an excellent blend of conditioning, skills, information, games and encouragement. We felt that you knew Josie as an individual, not just a number! The coaches at DRIVE are knowledgeable, fun, dedicated and kind - an awesome combination of qualities and people. Josie look forward to participating in future camps! Thanks, DRIVE!"
Bob and Mary-Jo Ohl: Parents of Josie Ohl - Gr. 12 Lord Tweedsmir
"DRIVE has created an incredible impression on my son. Not only has his love for the game continued to grow, but also his understanding and willingness to condition his body so he gets better at the game. You've been great role models. Thank you for that!"
