Tampa, FL – For the third straight year, over 100 talented players from all over the country headed to Tampa for the Blue Star All-American Camp.
The beautiful Wiregrass Ranch Sports Complex once again played host to the camp, which this year included players in the 2024-2030 classes. This is a camp that has seen alumni go on not only to become members of the Blue Star 30 sisterhood, but also now go on to play at the Division I level.
All-American Camp was once again led by a talented and experienced group of coaches, many of whom have been here the past two years. National media and scouting services were on hand for all three days of action, and they were treated to a wide variety of players spanning all the age groups and over 30 states. The level of exposure these players get each year at this event is unreal.
Certainly the future looks bright for many of the prospects who made the trek to Tampa. Some are just getting started on their basketball journeys, and others are well established and already being courted by a growing pool of college coaches.
