She had practice during the week of camp, and **I immediately saw a difference in her level of confidence and on-court play.** **She was a different player** after just a few days at camp! The **camp was professional, thoughtful, and smooth.** The way they worked with the kids was **very impressive.** It was clear that you **had their attention**, **but more importantly, their respect.”** > > > > ![A Venter](https://rygathletics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/A%20Venter.jpg?width=75&height=75&name=A%20Venter.jpg) > > Anelda Venter > “The ability to keep the **kids engaged in classroom learning and then take those new skills out onto the court** for practice, feedback and refinement is **an** **excellent model.** The kids wanted to learn about the theory because they were excited to put it into action. **After day 2, our son came home demonstrating how to** P.O.O.P. (pivot out of pressure). Clearly **the concepts were presented in a way that took the theory and made it a lasting reality.** Well done.” > > > > ![Bio Shot 2019](https://rygathletics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Bio%20Shot%202019.jpg?width=89&height=100&name=Bio%20Shot%202019.jpg) > > Chad Smith [REGISTER](https://rygathletics.com#register) ## Kids Deserve Better At the age of 7, 9/10 kids are involved in at least one sport. But, by the age of 15, between 70-80% have quit sport all together. Here's the #1 reason they quit: it wasn't fun anymore. It shouldn't be this way! When done well, sport is the perfect venue to develop the whole person. We believe every kid deserves a sports experience full of fun, challenge, and growth. That's why RYG Athletics exists, to help maximize the potential of young athletes in Northwest Arkansas.  ## Meet Coach Luke Luke Gromer is founder and president of RYG Athletics.

Skill and ability levels will vary from camp to camp, but we commit to finding the right level of difficulty and competition for each player within a session. If your child loves the sport and wants to get better, they'll love camp! What's the ratio of campers to coaches? This varies from camp to camp. For basketball, the max ratio is 16/1. For pickleball, the max ratio is 8/1. For volleyball, the max ration is 15/1. We intentionally have small ratios to ensure that athletes receiving timely feedback and coaching, and we create the safest environment possible. What's the daily schedule like? This depends on the camp. Check out the free preview of the specific camp you're interested in to see the daily schedule. What does the classroom time consist of? Each camp has classroom time that consists of the three elements below: 1. Athletics 2. Leadership 3. Mindset What's different about what RYG Athletics does? A lot! First, we use a Constraints-Led Approach to coaching underpinned by the Ecological Dynamics theoretical framework. We have a why behind our what.  Everything we do on court is about developing adaptable skills that actually transfer to the game. Too many camps, clinics, and practices attempt to isolate skills outside of the context they occur in. This isn't how sport skills are learned or the game is played. We put all our athletes in games or game-like situations, that help the skills and habits we're teaching emerge in the way they happen in the game. What if my child doesn't enjoy camp? We offer a 100% money back guarantee. If you or your child is not satisfied with their experience at camp after the first two days, we'll refund your registration fee.  Is lunch provided? No, lunch is not provided. Athletes will need to bring a sack lunch to eat each day if they are at a full day camp. - [Home](https://rygathletics.com) - [About](https://rygathletics.com/about) - [Contact](https://rygathletics.com/contact) - [Pillars & Core Values](https://rygathletics.com/pillars-and-core-values) - [Basketball Camps](https://rygathletics.com/basketball-camps) - [Football Camps](https://rygathletics.com/nike-football-camp-university-of-arkansas-fayetteville-arkansas) - [Volleyball Camps](https://rygathletics.com/nike-volleyball-camps) - [Basketball Training in NWA](https://rygathletics.com/basketball-training-northwest-arkansas) --- [![RYG Athletics Logo](https://rygathletics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/RYG%20Athletics%20Logos%20-%20Current%20-%20Nov%202024%20-%20No%20BG.png?width=2400&height=1200&name=RYG%20Athletics%20Logos%20-%20Current%20-%20Nov%202024%20-%20No%20BG.png "RYG Athletics Logo")](https://rygathletics.com) 3800 River Bend Dr, Fayetteville, AR 72704 Copyright © 2026, RYG Athletics
