OGDEN YMCA ACTIVITY CENTER 2710 Market 7 2 0St. 7 Wilmington, OGDEN BU NC SINESS LN. WILMINGTON, NC SPORTS CAMPS Halo Hoops mission is to encourage and improve youth through sports. We’re passionate about giving kids a positive experience where they grow as a player and as a person, and have a fun time! We do that by providing high quality instruction, surrounding them with positive role models and encouraging them to play on a team with their friends. As a sports ministry, we partner with like-minded people, churches and community organizations who help provide gym space, staff and service support for the many programs held throughout the year. This year we are providing three summer camps in the Wilmington area. Two are held at the Wilmington Basketball Center and another at the Midtown YMCA. Please refer to the Midtown YMCA camp pages for information on that specific camp. MEET THE COACHES Dave and Leslie Davies met in 1997 while playing for Athletes in Action. They started dreaming about running a similar organization that would combine their passion for kids and basketball. Over the next ten years, they coached together in the US and Australia, and developed the Halo Hoops Summer Camps. In 2004, they headed to basketball country, settling in Wilmington, NC to build Halo Hoops as a non-profit organization with year-round programs. The Davies have four sons, ages 6 to 15.
