There will be a few changes in our procedures but the quality of teaching will remain the same. We will follow State and CDC guidelines and safety of all players and staff will be our main concern.
A few of our new guidelines:
Our numbers will be limited to allow for social distancing. Applications will be accepted on a first come first serve basis.
Every camper will be given their own basketball which they will use for personal drills. We will also have “Game balls” that will be cleaned on a regular basis. Hand sanitizer stations will be available.
As of now, masks will be mandatory. We will continue to watch CDC guidelines and make changes as necessary.
There will be no snack bar or Pizza at lunch. Each camper will be responsible to bring their own lunch and snacks. They should also bring their own water bottle to stay hydrated.
We will have 3 lunch periods to allow for additional social distancing, Outside seating will be available,
We will have staff available in the parking lot in front of the gym each morning to take campers temperature and escort them from their cars to the gym. Visitors will not be allowed in the gym during the day.
Registration on Monday morning will be done outside the gym. All fees must be paid in advance. Walk-ins will not be accepted
CAMP REFUND POLICY: 7 day notice is required for all refunds (minus a $50 administration fee). If space is available, camps can be switched to another session without penalty with 7 days’ notice. If a doctor validated Covid quarantine prevents you from coming to camp, you can switch weeks or receive a refund.

CONCUSSION PROTOCOL Next Level Basketball has developed this protocol to address the issue of the identification and management of concussions for basketball participants
A safe return to activity is important for all participants following any injury, but it is essential after a concussion. The goal of this concussion protocol is to ensure that concussed participants are identified, treated and referred appropriately for return to play. Consistent use of a concussion management protocol will ensure that the participant receives appropriate follow-up in order to make certain that the participant is fully recovered prior to returning to full activity.
This protocol will be reviewed annually by Bob Foley. Changes and modifications will be reviewed and written notifications will be provided to all participants parents.
