Every participant in the summer camp program receives a Bulls/Sox Academy duffel bag, Chicago Bulls T-shirt, 4 White Sox Ticket Vouchers, and an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the United Center. All athletes will also have their abilities tested in some of the same skills that pro scouts use to test college athletes. The top qualifiers in each age group will compete for the Grand Championship on the United Center court at our annual Champions Day event.
The Chicago Bulls summer camps are broken down into two different age levels: Rookies and Veterans. The “Rookies” are for ages five to eight years old. This session is for three hours per day over five days and is geared toward teaching the basic fundamentals of basketball for young players just learning the game. The nine and twelve year olds participate in a three hour skills camp per day over five days that focuses on the essential skills of basketball for the more experienced or travel players.
