Golden Touch Basketball Academy is a company that offers sports camps for boys and girls in grades 1-9. The company was started after the Union Grove Bronco Basketball, Volleyball, and Football camps lost their sponsors.

Golden Touch was designed to give kids in the Union Grove/Racine area an opportunity to develop their individual skills in a variety of sports. While most youth coaches don’t have time during their respective seasons to develop individual skills while they are working on plays, philosophies, and chemistry, our camps give kids a chance to get their individual skills improved so they can compete at a higher level.

The philosophy of Golden Touch Basketball Academy is to help kids develop their individual basketball skills. Our focus is on ball handling, pivoting, jump stops, and shooting. We allow kids to learn at their own pace and offer a series of drills that we feel will give kids the best opportunity to develop their individual skills. We use a Four “F” philosophy of fundamentals, footwork, form, and fun.

Our mission is to teach young kids the fundamentals of basketball in a fun, safe, upbeat atmosphere where they can learn at their own pace and enjoy the game of basketball.
