Going camping

The first Rainbow Warrior basketball skills camp for kids under new Hawaii coach Eran Ganot is coming up quickly.

Ganot’s inaugural camp runs June 4-7 (Thursday through Sunday) at the UH athletics complex between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. at a cost of $250. It’s for boys and girls ages 6-17 and of all skill levels. Registration is open through the start of camp.

The next camp runs immediately afterward, June 8-11, with a third camp running Aug. 3-6.

Besides Ganot, current and former UH players and coaches will work the camps and offer instruction.

A discount is offered by signing up for multiple camps; two camps cost $450 and all three camps are $600. Funding goes toward UH basketball activities.

For beginners, the camps are to offer all-around fundamental instruction. Intermediate players will do drills individually and in teams to refine what they’ve learned while advanced players are promised more attention to hone their games.
