The Johnson C. Smith University men's and women's basketball programs will host five individual and team basketball camps this summer beginning on June 21 and ending on July 20. The Golden Bulls normally host one camp throughout the summer but with the National Youth Sports Program (NYSP) not being held this year, the staff felt it was imperative to give the youth something positive to do that will aid them both physically and personally.

"Johnson C. Smith has always realized its responsibility to the youth of Charlotte," commented athletics director and head men's basketball coach Steve Joyner, Sr. "With the cancellation of NYSP, we felt it necessary to offer more basketball related camps on the campus."
