The 2026 All-Academic Basketball Camp will be held at BABSON (formerly Brandeis) on Wednesday-Thursday July 1-2. To prepare 80-120 student-athletes for this most important exposure event on the calendar – considered mandatory for Academic Basketball Club players – Academic Basketball™ will hold a preparatory weekend event in Metro NY at Sarah Lawrence College’s Bronxville campus on THURSDAY June 25, 2026 from 2p-9p, three days before Babson. This camp may be expanded to 120 current high school players (Classes of 2027 – ’29) to provide student-athletes with grades and test scores needed for admittance to top academic colleges, and proven varsity talent on the court, with an opportunity to be seen by coaches from top academic colleges. These coaches watch each game played at the Academic Basketball Camp and provide immediate review directly to the players allowing the opportunity to develop better, more effective techniques in time to use them at Brandeis. Academic Basketball™ is working in association with the All-Academic Camp, the leading exposure camp for academically strong basketball players.
The 2026 Girls Academic Basketball Camp will not be held but the Girls All-Academic Camp replaces it along with many other wonderful academic basketball camps – CLICK ON “ACADEMIC CAMPS” above for the page with the list of camps.

A player with a minimum GPA of 3.2/4.0 (un-weighted) will be favorable to the majority of academic college coaches at the camp, lower by some schools, such as the SUNYs; rising seniors want to have an SAT score of 1100+ or an ACT composite score of 25 or higher though this is a “want, not need, as many academic schools have now gone to a test-optional admission policy.
