Middle School Summer Academy

Give your athlete a summer that actually moves them forward. Our Middle School Summer Academy delivers consistent, high-quality training all summer—without overwhelming your schedule. Sleep in, train hard, and build confidence all summer long.

WHY THIS PROGRAM WORKS

Most summer camps are either too much… or not enough.

Too many days. Too early. Too unstructured.

The SkillWorx Middle School Summer Academy is different.

We’ve built a program that gives athletes real development, real competition,

and real structure—without overwhelming your summer schedule.

✔ 10 AM start (no early mornings)

✔ Lunch included (one less thing to plan)

✔ Structured training + competition

WHAT YOUR ATHLETE GETS

Every session is designed to help athletes improve while enjoying the process.

Your athlete will experience:

Skill development (shooting, ball handling, finishing)

Game-based drills and decision-making

Competitive play and team concepts

Friday competitions and contests

A positive, high-energy training environment

This isn’t random open gym—it’s a guided development experience.

Meet Our Middle School Summer Academy Coaches

Introducing Coach Shannon
Former DI Athlete & DII Coach

"Hey! I'm Coach Shannon! Basketball has been my universe since I was five years old. In high school, I had the thrill of leading my team to its first-ever state championship victory. From there, I took my love for the game through junior college and onto the Division I level. I had the opportunity to coach at the college level and now focus my skills, knowledge, and passion helping youth athletes right here at SkillWorx. My coaching style is rooted in the philosophy that “how you do anything is how you do everything.”

Introducing Coach Chris
Former International Player

"Hey! My name is Chris Weness, and I’m one of the dedicated Skill Trainers at SkillWorx here in Tarpon Springs. Basketball has been my lifelong passion. I’ve spent over 30 years playing, studying, and teaching this beautiful game.

My journey through basketball spans nearly every level of competition — from recreational leagues and school ball (K4 through High School) to AAU competition during my senior year, and even a preseason with Norway’s BLNO, now the nation’s premier professional basketball league.

PARENTS & KIDS LOVE SKILLWORX!

"Phenomenal classes and atmosphere. Great trainers. Highly recommend."

If you’re looking for a supportive, competitive environment that helps athletes level up, this is the place. Highly recommend! 🏀
