    • Overnight Camp Information:

    We hope that you are as anxious for camp to start as we are! You will find information that should be helpful. Please feel free to e-mail us - ctbasketballcamp@hotmail.com - with any further questions.
    1. Registration for camp will take place in Gampel Pavilion between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM (see interactive campus maps that we have linked for you - just type in building names) on the first day of your camp session. From registration you will go to the dormitories to check in. Please remember to eat lunch before you arrive, as lunch is not served on the first day of camp. Registration will involve:
      • Room key and meal card deposit collection ($60 in cash)
      • room assignments
      • t-shirt and jersey distribution
      • collection of camp store money
      • collection of any medications
      • collection of any forms not previously mailed in.


    2. Authorization for the Administration of Medication: Please note that per state law, we cannot administer any medication (including over the counter medications such as Tylenol) without a form signed by the doctor prescribing the medication. You can find the this form by logging on to www.genoauriemmacamp.com/campers after you have registered. If you do bring a medication to camp, it needs to be in the original container (labeled with camper's name), and then put into a "ziploc" bag with any other medications, also with the camper's name. All these medications will be turned into the medical staff at check-in.

    3. Other required forms: All campers must bring (or have on file) the completed Health Exam/Medical form and the Parental Consent form. NO CAMPER WILL BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN CAMP UNLESS THESE FORMS ARE TURNED IN.

    4. Cancellation and Refund Policy: Notice of camper cancellation/request for refund must be sent in writing in order to be valid for a refund. Full refunds, minus an administration fee, will be made prior to April 1st. No refund for any reason after April 1st.

    5. Key and meal card deposits: All campers are required to leave $60.00 in cash for a key and meal card deposit. Your money will be returned at checkout dependent upon return of the room key and meal card.

    6. Start of camp: Camp begins promptly at 1:00 PM on the first day. Registration goes until 1:00 PM, but be aware that if you arrive at 1:00 PM you will be late for the start of camp.

    7. Activities: Each morning, afternoon or evening segment of the Connecticut Girls Basketball Camp is 3-4 hours long and includes a number of the following activities; drill stations, league games, lectures, film sessions, individual and team practices, 1 on 1 and 3 on 3 tournaments, and foul shooting and hot-shot contests.

    8. Camp Store: The camp store will be open during registration and free-time during camp. T-shirts, shorts, and snack items will be available. All campers must deposit their money at registration for safe keeping. You will charge against that amount during the week. Your unused balance will be returned to you at checkout. We STRONGLY encourage that campers do not keep any cash in their rooms.

    9. Contact Numbers: In the event that your parents need to reach you during camp, they may leave a message at our office, 860-486-4756. We will have other emergency numbers for your parents at check-in.

    10. Shopping at the UCONN Co-op: Please note that campers ARE NOT ALLOWED in the UCONN Co-op store unless accompanied by a parent before camp begins on the first day, or after camp ends on the last day . The Co-op is not supervised by our staff, and if a camper is found in the Co-op they will be sent home immediately.

    11. Phones: There are no phones located in the dorms or Gampel Pavilion. IF you bring a cell phone please be aware that the phone may only be used in your dorm room (it is not allowed to be brought to the gym for ANY reason), and all cell phones must be TURNED OFF at 11:00 PM at lights out. Anyone on a cell phone after 11:00 PM, or found with a phone in the gym, will have the phone confiscated until the end of camp.

    12. Attire: Tank tops are not allowed under any circumstances. All campers must have sleeves on their shirts. We strongly encourage all campers to wear proper basketball attire - we are at camp to play basketball…not have a fashion show!

    13. Suggested Clothing and Articles:
      • Backpack or small bag to carry to gym
      • We ask that cell phones be sent with discretion - it tends to increase homesickness in some kids.
