Touchstone Energy Sports Camp Scholarships

basketballTouchstone Energy Sports Camps Scholarships are awarded to more than 50 middle-school students in North Carolina every year to attend basketball camps on two of the state's largest college campuses.

The scholarships send 26 young women to the N.C. State University Women's Basketball Camp in Raleigh and 26 young men to the Roy Williams Basketball Camp at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Both camps are held in the summer, and campers will work closely with the championship-winning college coaches to develop fundamental skills, helping the young athletes perform and excel both on and off the court.

Applications are accepted each year from January through March, and applicants can expect to be notified of the results by May 1. Students must be in sixth, seventh or eighth grade during the 2013-2014 school year and must attend a qualifying school to apply. Applicants will be judged on their academics, extra-curricular activities and an essay that must accompany the application.

The 2013 Roy Williams Carolina Basketball camp will take place Saturday, June 15 - Wednesday, June 19. The 2013 N.C. State University Women's Basketball Camp is scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 1 - Sunday, Aug. 4.

The Touchstone Energy Sports Camps program provides a unique educational and athletic opportunity for our state’s youth and demonstrates Touchstone Energy’s core values of accountability, integrity, innovation and particularly, commitment to community.
