The 2013 basketball season for the St Francis Varsity Girls ended in great fashion, with a State Championship. It was our goal this summer to bring NIKE Girls Basketball Camp to another championship level. Camp Director Michelle Manfredi knows a few things about winning championship, so her intensity for the championship moment was clear. The girls this week definitely had a chance to feel the championship spirit, and also take home a championship heart.

Throughout this week, the NIKE Girls Basketball Camp at St Francis High School honestly was one of the most personal camps this summer. Since this camp was small, each staffer had a chance to get to know each camper personally. This carried over into the level of play. On Championship Friday anyone could notice the focused and determined look in the eyes of the campers. We started off the day with 5on5 championship games. Next was our Living By Numbers Championships and individual skill improvement sessions. Lastly was the crowd favorite 3on3 Cut Throat Championship. All week the campers have been earning points and learning different ways to be successful with their teams. Coaches, players, and parents enjoyed the intensity during the 3on3 games.

Championship Friday ended with our NIKE Awards Ceremony. All the campers received camps T-shirts, workbooks, players evaluations, and various fun prizes. The campers that performed well during the LBN Championships, earned autographed NIKE basketballs and NIKE gear. Below is the list of LBN winners and the photos of the individual winners. We are sad the camp ended today, but we are more excited about the improvement of all the campers. See you next summer St Francis girls!
