Does my camper need experience to attend?
None at all. About 35% of our 3rd–5th grade campers have never played organized basketball. Stations are scaled to age and skill so first-timers and travel-team kids both get challenged.
What does my camper bring each day?
Indoor basketball shoes (non-marking), a refillable water bottle, athletic clothes, and a basketball if they have one (loaners available). We provide t-shirt, wristband, water, and a snack.
What's drop-off and pick-up like?
Drop off at the MHS Main Gym Lobby B entrance — 10 minutes before start. Pick up at the same door. Coaches stay 15 min after dismissal. Late pick-up after that is $10 per 15 minutes (we keep them safe).
Can siblings come together?
Yes. Siblings are run on parallel courts by age group but share drop-off, pick-up, and snack break. Each additional sibling gets $25 off per week, automatically.
What's the refund policy?
Full refund up to 14 days before your week starts. 50% refund 7–13 days out. Within 7 days, we transfer your spot to a future week or offer a credit toward next summer.
Is financial aid available?
Yes — fully and confidentially. Email coach@mundelein.org with the subject "Camp aid." No documentation, no committee. We've never turned a Mundelein family away over money.
What if it rains or my camper is sick?
Camp runs rain or shine — we're indoors. If your camper is sick, email us before drop-off and we'll move that day to another week (subject to availability) or credit you a future session.
Will my camper try out for fall travel teams?
Camp doesn't replace tryouts — but every camper gets a free tryout invite (a $40 value) for our fall travel program. Coaches use camp to start identifying players for the A and B teams.
