ATLANTA, GA | Morehouse College men's basketball has officially announced the 2026
Larry Dixon Basketball Camps, a five-event summer camp lineup that will bring youth instruction, team competition and elite individual development to Forbes Arena.
Under the direction of Morehouse head coach Larry Dixon and the Maroon Tigers men's basketball staff, this year's camp schedule includes two elite camps, one team camp and two youth camps. The camps are designed to provide players of varying ages and skill levels an opportunity to learn the game, sharpen fundamentals and compete in a structured college environment.
The 2026 camp slate opens with Elite Camp I on June 6, followed by Team Camp from June 9-11, Kids Camp I from June 15-18, Kids Camp II from June 22-25, and Elite Camp II on Aug. 1. All camps will be held at Forbes Arena on the campus of Morehouse College.
"Our goal is to create a camp environment that teaches the game the right way while also giving young players and teams a meaningful competitive experience," Dixon said. "Whether it's a young camper learning the fundamentals, a high school team preparing for its season or an elite player looking to compete in front of college coaches, we want every camper to leave better than they arrived."
