Back for one final season at Kentucky after pulling his name out of the NBA Draft, Otega Oweh is ready to celebrate with Big Blue Nation — especially the youngest fans.

The All-SEC guard has scheduled his first-ever youth basketball camp in Lexington, sharing his passion with the local community with the Otega Oweh Basketball ProCamp set for July 23 at Sports Center, located at 3801 Mall Road.

The camp is open to boys and girls in grades 1-8 with a focus on basketball fundamentals and fun. Participants will have the opportunity to work directly with Oweh as they learn new techniques, improve their overall performance, engage in position-specific drills, compete in interactive games, and listen to motivational discussions led by the Kentucky superstar himself.

Campers will have their first opportunity to meet and learn from the likely Preseason SEC Player of the Year following his return to Lexington, ask questions, and receive feedback on their performance – ensuring that participants leave with new knowledge and memories to last a lifetime.

Each participant will receive an individual photo with Oweh and have the opportunity to bring an item to camp to be signed. You will also receive a limited edition Otega Oweh Basketball ProCamp t-shirt with additional upgrades available during checkout.

The comprehensive camp experience is great for athletes of all skill levels, whether they are new to the game or have been playing for years. Individual and team awards will be given in each age group. The camp staff will feature some of the area’s top high school and college coaches with a maximum camper to coach ratio of 10:1 for the best individual instruction.

Camp on July 23 is scheduled for 3 PM to 6 PM, interested participants encouraged to sign up early to secure their spot as capacity is limited.
