Young basketball enthusiasts were able to fine-tune their skills earlier this month, thanks to the Franco Basket Camp, organized by the Conseil scolaire catholique du Nouvel-Ontario (CSCNO).

The July 4-8 camp took place at Collège Notre-Dame, and was attended by 40 children ages eight to 13 years old.

“The Franco-Basket Camp enabled participants to develop their basketball skills under the guidance of an experienced team of CSCNO coaches,” a press release said.

“The team of coaches promoted the development of basic skills, leadership and sportsmanship in a Francophone environment. Each Franco-Basket participant received a t-shirt, as well as a progress report and a participation certificate at the conclusion of the camp.”
