Mankato Area Public Schools

Give your student a head start on middle school athletics! This fun, high-energy camp introduces 6th graders to the sport of distance running, offering a true sneak peek into what official practices and meets are like. Camp Highlights: Real Race Experience: Compete in two official cross country meets at East and West. Participants will run the same route and can see their improvements over the course of the camp! Skill & Endurance: Learn proper running technique, pacing strategies, and conditioning. Team Building: Connect and train with potential future teammates before 7th grade.

The emphasis of the clinic will be placed on ball handling, dribbling, pivoting, passing, and one-on-one moves, perimeter shots, and free throws. The entire objective of the program is to introduce the boys to the correct fundamentals used in the game of basketball. The clinic offers little opportunity in playing real games. In the time allotted for the program, our coaching staff feels it is more important to spend the time teaching proper individual techniques. Members of the Cougar coaching staff will be present at the sessions with the varsity and junior varsity players demonstrating and teaching. We look forward to helping your son get a healthy introduction or progressing further in his current understanding of basketball and love of the game.

Join us for a fun, skill-building volleyball camp at Mankato East High School! Players will learn the fundamentals of the game, improve their techniques, and enjoy game play with friends in a supportive environment. The camp includes four Monday evening sessions in September, plus a special skill session during a Mankato East home match on Tuesday, October 6. Campers will also receive a camp t-shirt as part of their registration.
