Jack PIlgrimby:Jack Pilgrim08/03/23

Do you miss Oscar Tshiebwe? We all do. The former Kentucky superstar who earned consensus National Player of the Year honors is off to the NBA, living out his pro dreams with the Indiana Pacers.

But he’s excited to announce his return to Lexington for his first-ever youth basketball camp — and he’s bringing help.

Introducing the Oscar Tshiebwe Youth Basketball Camp

Tshiebwe will be joined by members of the current Kentucky basketball team for the Oscar Tshiebwe Youth Basketball Camp, open to boys and girls in grades 1-8 who want to learn the fundamentals and receive tips and hands-on instruction from some of the best in the game. And you won’t have to wait long for camp. Just a few weeks away, the fun will take place at the Sports Center in Lexington, KY on August 27.

Campers will have the opportunity to work directly with Tshiebwe and other Kentucky players to learn new techniques and improve their overall performance. Among the current Wildcats set to participate? Aaron Bradshaw, Justin Edwards, Rob Dillingham, Antonio Reeves, Tre Mitchell, Reed Sheppard, Adou Thiero, Joey Hart, Jordan Burks, Kareem Watkins, Walker Horn, Grant Darbyshire, and Brennan Canada.

Beyond the drills and scrimmages, each camper will receive a team photo, a limited-edition camp t-shirt and a souvenir autograph. They will also get the chance to meet and learn from Tshiebwe, ask questions and receive feedback on their play — ensuring participants leave with new knowledge and memories to last a lifetime.

Want to participate? Registration for the Oscar Tshiebwe Youth Basketball Camp is now open, with early bird pricing available until spots become limited. Interested campers are encouraged to sign up early to secure their spot. Scholarship opportunities are also available for families in need.
