Coach Cade Basketball Camp
Learning from the Master
Get ready for a five-day experience designed to help players elevate their game while learning from Coach Cade, his staff, and Blue Ridge School players. Campers will sharpen their skills through focused instruction, individual attention, and competitive 3v3 and 5v5 play that emphasizes teamwork and real-game application. Beyond basketball, boys will get a true sense of what it’s like to be coached and mentored at Blue Ridge School. Each camp runs alongside our other summer programs, giving campers the chance to connect, build friendships, and experience what it feels like to be part of the Baron community.
The Brotherhood
Blue Ridge School has produced 30+ college basketball players and 6 pro players over the last 11 years. Not only will you get to learn from the same coaches who helped develop college and NBA players like Mamadi Diakite (Virginia, Bucks/Cavaliers/Knicks), Maliq Brown (Duke) and Darius McGhee (Liberty, JL Bourg France), but you will also get to learn from many of these players as they assist as counselors at camp. The Brotherhood runs deep, and these players enjoy giving back to the next generation.
Sportsmanship is a Core Theme
Blue Ridge School believes that young men need to learn how to win with grace, lose with dignity, and understand the value of healthy competition. Team sports contribute mightily to a young man’s physical and moral development. Coach Cade’s camp gives athletes an opportunity to compete on a daily basis and learn to respond in a way that positively prepares them for the future.
