Q: Will my child be with kids in his/her age group?
A: Yes. We break out the campers by age group and gender. There may be a couple baskets that have a mix but we'll do our best to put any advanced athlete in an older age group or vice versa. The bulk of the camp is individual skill drills to make you a better player, so that doesn't matter much anyways until we get to competitive play.
