Next week, the Miners boys basketball team will open the doors of Park City High School to a group of eager youngsters, offering a five‑day camp that blends skill drills with fun competition.
Running from Monday through Friday, the sessions will run from 9 a.m. to noon, giving participants a solid foundation in fundamentals while they learn from the high school’s own players.
Head Coach Drew Trost, along with several of his varsity teammates, will serve as instructors, guiding fourth through ninth graders through shooting, passing and defensive techniques.
Building More Than Skills
Beyond the on‑court work, the camp is designed to generate funds that will directly support the Miners program, helping cover equipment, travel and other expenses.
Park City officials see the initiative as a way to kick off a revitalized era of basketball in the community, encouraging families to gather in the gymnasiums and fostering a sense of belonging.
Park City High School Principal Caleb Fine expressed his enthusiasm, stating he would love to see the gyms filled with community kids, a vision that aligns with the camp’s goal of bridging generations through sport.
The week‑long program not only promises to sharpen the abilities of the youngest participants but also to strengthen the ties between the high school athletes and the families they serve, creating a lasting impact on the town’s sporting culture.
