Terrier Intensity Girls Overnight Camp

Thomas College was the original home of two of New England’s first basketball camps, the All-Maine Clinic and the Pine Tree Basketball Clinic. Thomas is going back to the roots of what made these camps great – a focus on skill development in an intimate setting where enthusiasm and teaching go hand in hand. The Clinic Directors bring with them over 60 years of combined experience in coaching and directing basketball clinics. With a professional staff made up of college and high school coaches, terrific facilities, and a desire to see each player improve, the Thomas Intensity Basketball Camp will offer all players a great experience.
