WHAT IS THE HOME TOWN HERO CAMP?
The Hometown Hero Basketball Camp was created by three young men who grew up in Miami Gardens, attended Miami Norland Senior High School, went on to play at the University of Miami and are now coming back to give the next generation the same opportunities, mentorship, and mindset that took them to the top.
This camp isn't just about basketball. It's about showing kids that their zip code is not their destiny.
Our mission is simple:
Show kids that where you start doesn't limit where you can go.
