Dwayne Killings SUNY Basketball Camp 2023

Forty kids from the Capital District enjoyed the pleasure of basketball instruction and constructive supervised youth interaction while attending the Dwane Killings youth basketball camp.

The week long camp provided essential basketball skills taught by a former player and the current coach and his staff/volunteers.  This was not simply an effort to keep kids occupied, kids were drilled in basketball techniques and were socialized with other area youth providing tangible life skills.
