We provide a safe, well-equipped, positive environment, staffed by experienced professionals who love working with kids. We focus on teamwork, fair play and having fun, rather than on competition. Kids being kids. That’s what it's all about at Hi-Five.
PROGRAMS
SPORTS CAMPS
Our unique concept for children ages 7 to 13, focuses on the major team sports…baseball, basketball, volleyball, soccer, touch football, and lacrosse. Our campers learn skills at daily "teaching stations" and have the opportunity to "shine" during games. Campers play on fields that "fit." We call these the "Field of Dreams," which includes shorter football and soccer fields, lower baskets and shorter courts, lower volleyball nets, and a "kid-sized" baseball field. The camp is divided into three age groups. Each camper is placed on a college team within each age division. Three afternoons a week, during optional activities, campers may again choose to specialize in one of the five major team sports, or a variety of activities which include archery, tetherball, floor hockey, capture the flag, a recreational swim and much, much more.
Professional Staff
Experienced coaches, educators and college and high school athletes work with our campers to ensure a quality experience. Our goal is to promote fun while learning. Campers are given the opportunity to succeed through positive reinforcement and personalized instruction. We promote the proper fundamentals and techniques while always maintaining a sense of humor.
Awards
Once every four weeks, Hi-Five rewards all of its campers for their efforts and achievements, both on and off the playing field. We conclude each session with out Awards Extravaganza and professional video presentation (of course, parents are invited).
Final Five Friday
Campers compete in a wide variety of contests, games, and special events every Friday
JR. NBA/WNBA
The NBA and WNBA have developed a youth basketball program providing a unique experience for the entire family. The advisory council for the Jr. NBA/WNBA includes Doc Rivers (Former NBA player & NBA Coach), Bill Walton (Former NBA Player & NBA Analyst), Sue Bird (WNBA Player), Mike Bibby (NBA Player), and Ray Allen (NBA Player).
The main goal of the program is to provide an opportunity for each athlete to improve his/her skills while having FUN! The program is designed in such a manner that each week new skills are taught and previous skills are reinforced. Our goal is to teach the importance of responsibility, sportsmanship, and Teamwork.
Hi-Five Sports & Entertainment is proud to be able to bring these programs to a city near you! Our programs have age-appropriate sized basketballs and basket heights. This promotes the use of proper mechanics when handling and shooting the basketball.
The program is broken down as follows:
- Individual clinics
- Team practice & scrimmages
- Jr. NBA/WNBA leagues
NATIONAL SPORTS JAMBOREE CHARITY TOUR
To help raise funds for the Hi-Five Foundation Hi-Five Sports & Entertainment will be traveling to a city near you to put on the ultimate show – National Sports Jamboree. The event will help foster awareness regarding the problems low-income families encounter. One solution we have is to pay for children to have after-school activities and have the chance to go to summer camp.
The events will have the following:
- Basketball Tournaments
- Live Music
- Food vendors
- College recruiters
- And more.
