Robbie Hummel Set to Host 2nd Annual Basketball Camp
Valparaiso High School and Purdue University basketball star Robbie Hummel is returning to the region to host his second annual Robbie Hummel Basketball Camp, running June 17-20th at The Fieldhouse in Merrillville.
The Robbie Hummel Basketball Camp will provide individual instruction on shooting, ball handling, passing, defense and team concepts. Competitive competition (5-on-5) will also be used as a training tool.
"It’s really fun to interact with the kids," said Hummel. "We play some 5-on-5 where I get to be the 'all time point guard' and it’s cool coming full circle teaching the kids just like so many others taught me during all the camps I went to."
Hummel played in his first NBA season this year for the Minnesota Timberwolves, starting in 5 games and averaging 3.4 point and 2.5 rebounds in just 12 minutes per game.
The camp will run in two sessions:
- Session 1: Grades K-5, 9:30am -11:30am
- Session 2: Grades 6-9, 12:30pm - 2:30pm
Cost is $115 for either session.
“The camp is very fundamentally based," explains Hummel. "It's taught by myself and other former college players."
