The most exciting thing that ever happen to me was when i was selected as the mvp of the basketball camp i went to. I was 13 yrs old when i went to this camp and it was in Little Rock, Arkansas.
This was my first year ever playing organized basketball in other words on a team. I wanted to go to this camp because my coach recomended it and he told me that it will make you improve.
The drive from Iowa to Arkansas took about 10 hours and it was a pretty boring road trip. when we got to our hotel the first thing i did before unpacking was hop on the bed and go to sleep because i had a busy day ahead of me.
When i got to the Gym the next mourning, i saw a lot of younger and older kids. I was a little nervous at first because it was my first year really playing basketball and didnt understand it quite well.
We started by getting our jersey size and our shoe size. Then we did drills for the first 4 hours then had lunch.
The lunch we had was not very tasty. they served us pasta with really hard bread and a cup of cold coolaid, but it didnt even fill me up.
Camp was for 12 hours from 8am to 8 pm. after about the 5th hour i was exahusted and ready to go back home.
At the end of the camp everyone met at the center court and the owner of the camp announced the mvps for each grade level. i was selceted as the mvp for my age group and i was the most excitied ive ever been.
