A Record 92 Participants…. 39th Tommy Burleson Basketball Camp the Biggest and “One of The Best Ever”

The 2022 Tommy Burleson Basketball Camp held July 18-22 at the Old Rock Gymnasium and adjacent auxiliary Newland Elementary School Gymnasium was the largest in number of campers and called one of the best in over-all talent of its participants in its 39 years of existence by its namesake and director.

92 male and female players, ranging in ages from 6 to 15, attended, and Burleson called it one of the top camps he has hosted in terms of a wide array in talent and promising basketball potential from those players.

“I believe very strongly that my camp should be a fun and learning experience for each participant and those objectives were certainly achieved at this year’s camp,” Burleson said.
