AIC’s baseball and basketball camps are for elementary and secondary school-age boys. The women’s soccer camp is designed for high school girls.

According to Associate Athletic Director for Internal Operations Ben Rosenfeld, “The camps offer a variety of different skill sets that participants can acquire not only in their respective sports but life skills as well such as team building, comradery, and motivation. The camps offer fun and unique opportunities for campers to grow in a sport they are passionate about while making friends and sharing in great experiences they can carry forward.”

Basketball camp is the largest of the summer programs. The AIC men’s basketball team had one of its best seasons in program history this year winning the Northeast-10 Conference Championship and hosted the NCAA Division II East Region Championship in March.

Head coach Andy Burkholder led the team to the NCAA for the first time in five seasons grabbing their first NCAA tournament victory in more than 20 years. Burkholder was named the NABC East District Co-Coach of the Year.
