Is the camp in a safe area? Are campers supervised? Yes to both questions. The hotel is North of Alicante, in a quiet and safe
neighbourhood, near the beach and the Sports Halls. If Basketball Camp
participants have hotel accommodation, they are highly supervised. Only
during their free time or during the time to rest can they be in the common
rooms or watching TV without camp counsellors, who remain available in
the building.
Campers must participate in all scheduled on‐campus and off‐campus
activities, for which there are always adult supervisors.
Campers cannot leave the camp premises alone. Only campers can go out
alone with prior parental permission.
How many players are in the same room? The majority of rooms are twin rooms, although there are several triple
rooms.
Single rooms are available on request.
How do I handle roommate requests? There is a question on the
enrolment form where you can
specify if the camper is tra‐
velling with a companion and
write the companion's name. If
they are the same gender, we
can accommodate them
together.
Can parents join the Basketball Camp? If you want to come with your
children and are interested in
languages, you can have a
Spanish course in the morning
and enjoy your holidays in
Alicante. We can also suggest
various hotels and activities.
Please feel free to ask for
further information about
Spanish programmes for
families.
If a basketball player comes with
a brother, sister or friends and
they prefer to take part in
another sports camp, they can.
You can review the other Sports
Camps in Alicante on our
website or ask for the brochure
on the Tennis, Sailing,
Windsurfing or Golf camps.

How can I…? What kind of...? Is there a…? Where is…? What is the best
time for…?
Is there accommodation available before or after the Camp? Yes, this is possible because the tennis, sailing, windsurfing and golf camps
are from June 28 to August 20, and therefore there will already be adult
supervisors at the hotel.
Additional accommodation is available at an extra cost, but the camper may
have to change his/her room at the hotel.
The extra cost depends not only on the accommodation price but also on the
activities scheduled for the extra days, as participants cannot be alone in the
hotel.
Is there a laundry service provided? The hotel has a laundry service.
2‐week campers can contract an optional laundry service (€6 per 5 kilos). A
laundry company takes the clothes on Thursday and will receive the clothes
on Saturday. This service is only available if participants have their clothes
labelled and inside laundry bags.
Are the campers placed into groups based on age or ability? Both. Coaches first divide campers into groups based on age. Then campers
are evaluated by staff as they go through a series of skill‐testing drills.
What are the ratios between staff and participants? At the training sessions we typically have 6‐8 players per coach, plus
additional staff on campus, including trainers, directors and assistants.
At the language school, there are 7 students per classroom.
Are all fees included in the camp price? Yes, except arrival or departure transfer services, lunch on the first day for
early arrivals, lunch on the last day for late departures, optional laundry
service, and personal expenses (beverages, ice‐creams, etc.).
All entrance tickets for activities are included in the price. .
What is the best time for phone calls Although mobile phones are not
forbidden at the camp, they will
not be allowed at training
sessions or in language classes,
and their use may be regulated.
Please also be aware of the
possibility that phones may run
out of battery, break or be lost.
Campers have free time at: 8:00
to 9:00, 14:30 to 16:00 and
21:30 to 22:00. Please arrange
suitable calling times with your
son/daughter.
Parents, please note: If your
son/daughter has a mobile
phone, please avoid calling
every day to “check if everything
is ok. ”
Among the educational merits of
a teenager attending the camp is
the experience they gain of
being “away from home.”
Furthermore, if you are based
abroad, it is important that you
avoid night‐time phone calls by
taking into account the time
difference with Spain. Please
also be aware that your children
will be extremely busy during
their time at the camp.
All campers will be able to call
home on the day they arrive at
the camp.
