Young basketball fans across Indiana can now sign up for the 2026 Jr. Hoops clinics and summer camps, presented by the Indiana Pacers and Indiana Fever and cared for by Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at Ascension St. Vincent.
TheJr. Hoops Tour will once again bring free, single-day clinics to youth ages 8-14 at multiple locations across Indiana this summer. Each clinic provides opportunities for participants to learn the fundamentals of the game, while emphasizing sportsmanship, respect, teamwork and healthy living.
“We know summer is all about kids staying active, trying new things and making memories with friends, and basketball is such a fun way to bring all of that together,” said Pacers Sports & Entertainment Associate Director of Community Engagement Richie Smith. “Whether it’s a free clinic or a week at camp, we want kids to have a chance to learn the game and have a great experience.”
Participants of all skill levels will benefit from small-group instruction and can expect a free T-shirt and headband, prizes and giveaways, complimentary lunch, fun games and potential visits from Pacers & Fever personalities.
Boys and girls ages 7-15 can also sign up for Jr. Hoops Summer Camps, which are paid, week-long sessions of basketball training focused on individual skill development, with instruction provided by The National Basketball Academy. The experience also includes an end-of-camp awards ceremony and a personalized player evaluation completed by their coach. Campers will also receive a ticket to a Pacers home game during the 2026-27 season.
All locations, times and the number of open registrations for clinics and camps are available atPacers.com/JrHoops orFeverBasketball.com/JrHoops.
