SMITHVILLE – Smithville Independent School District hosted two more athletic camps this past week for first through ninth-grade girls on June 12–15 as Lady Tigers volleyball and basketball had two camps for each sport.
The advanced volleyball camp was from 8-9:30 a.m. in the high school gym and the younger basketball camp in the junior high school gym at the same time, while the advanced basketball camp and younger volleyball camp was from 10-11:30 a.m. This gave the girls a perfect opportunity to go to both the volleyball and basketball camps with their respective age groups.
Drills, scrimmages, the importance of teamwork and a positive attitude were heavily taught during the basketball and volleyball camps.
This week, Smithville will continue sports camps on June 20-23 as the boys will have two separate basketball camps in the high school gym: 8-9:30 a.m. is the Tigers Basketball Camp ($50.00 per athlete) for incoming first through fifth graders and 10-11:30 a.m. is the Advanced Tigers Basketball Camp ($20.00 per athlete) for the sixth through ninth graders.
