Accommodations and Meals

Participants stay in spacious dormitories on the SUNY Potsdam campus.  Residence hall staff will be available around the clock to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. Residents must provide their own blankets, pillows, sheets, and towels.

Campers will receive three complete, well-balanced meals each day Monday through breakfast Thursday. Commuters will receive lunch each day Monday through Thursday. 

Equipment

Campers will need basketball or court shoes (no running shoes), appropriate game practice attire, towels and a swimsuit if they wish to swim during free time.

Facilities

Facilities are, without question, one of the strengths of our program and will enable each player to realize his or her full potential! Participants will be afforded the luxury of playing in the North County's basketball "mecca," SUNY Potsdam's Maxcy Hall. The complex consists of six full-size indoor courts and numerous outdoor baskets, including four new full-size outdoor courts. Swimming will be available at the Maxcy Hall pool.

International Participants

Due to the implementation of new U.S. immigra­tion requirements for entering the country, participants or their parents/guardians are advised to check on current U.S. immigration requirements prior to coming to Potsdam.
