“I want to thank you and your team of coaches, physios, counsellors and admin staff for the camp. My son has obviously had a wonderful time and enjoyed himself immeasurably. More importantly he has learnt a lot - basketball skills and team work, made new friends and taken a step into adulthood. He will hopefully take those friendships and skills forwardthrough the next few years.”
