AYF Basketball Camp

The AYF Basketball Camp is planned for September 24 to 26, 2010. This camp
which is designed for boys and girls ages twelve to fourteen in E and D Divisions
focuses on engaging our young members in sports, recreational and educational
activities.
Perhaps most
importantly, the camp promotes the development of our young members' social skills allowing them to build lasting friendships
with their basketball buddies. This is also a great opportunity for our athletes
to showcase all their talents, off the basketball court, to their coaches and their
peers. On more serious topics, educating the athletes about the history of
Homenetmen and Ararat Chapter is among the goals of the program.
This year the
number of the participants is about 120.
Fred Babadjanians is the camp organizer. The program also benefits from the
leadership and participation of coaches from boys and girls E and D Divisions, current and past board
members, and A Division players who volunteer their time as group
leaders and counselors.
