 The athletics season is coming to an end, but a pair of Polk State College coaches will hold camps this summer to bolster fundamentals and give young players new insights into their sports. Polk State’s coaches host summer camps to engage the local community and foster young athletes’ interest in sports and higher education. While the summer camps are hosted by the individual coaches rather than the College because they are on campus, students are introduced to the idea of higher education. Head Basketball Coach Brandon Giles and Head Volleyball Coach German Del Valle will help players progress, learn new things, improve in key aspects, and engage in friendly competition. Giles will hold a week-long camp while DelValle hosts a pair of three-day camps.
