« Always happy with this camp!!! My child love it 👍 »

« Une magnifique expérience BEYOND EXPECTED Mon fils vient de participer à son deuxième camp et il l’a une nouvelle fois adoré.Il y retournera d’ailleurs en octobre avec énormément d’enthousiasme. Un immense merci à toute l’équipe de coachs, et tout particulièrement à Coach Peter, qui ont été absolument exceptionnels avec les enfants. Bienveillants, empathiques, passionnés, mais aussi capables de les pousser à se dépasser, à persévérer et à ne jamais abandonner. Ce qui m’a le plus touchée, au-delà des progrès en basketball, c’est l’esprit d’équipe et de collectivité que l’équipe de coachs a réussi à créer entre les enfants. On sent chez toute l’équipe une véritable passion du basketball, mais surtout une vraie capacité à transmettre des valeurs aux enfants : l’effort, la persévérance, la confiance, le respect des autres et le plaisir de progresser ensemble AVEC GRATITUDE »
