A Summer of Growth on the Court
Caprock High School in Amarillo opened its doors this summer to young athletes ranging from third to ninth grade, offering a week‑long basketball camp that blends skill drills with fun competition.
Coaches Michael Jackson and Javion Estrada stressed that the program is about more than just shooting and dribbling; it is about building relationships, encouraging coachability, and keeping kids engaged during the break.
Mentorship and Lasting Impact
Estrada, a Caprock alumnus, spoke about his desire to leave a lasting impression on the next generation of players, hoping his experience as both a student and a coach will inspire them to pursue excellence on and off the court.
Jackson noted that many campers return year after year, a testament to the welcoming atmosphere and the emphasis on continuous improvement.
The camp, which runs through Thursday, provides a structured environment where participants can familiarize themselves with middle and high school coaching staff while sharpening their fundamentals.
