The Bounce Holiday Camps fall under the umbrella of Bounce Academy, which is an elite basketball program using resiliency based principles that develop participants both on and off the court, developing a success mindset that impacts the game of basketball and the bigger game of life. Bounce Academy is a social enterprise activity of Charity Bounce, designed to support their community and social initiatives. With former Harlem Globetrotter and Transformational Speaker Tracy Williams as the Bounce Academy Director, all programs are based on years of basketball experience and transformational program development.
Bounce programs inspire participants through our BOUNCE vision for all young people:
B - Believe in yourself
O - Own your mistakes
U - Unite with others
N - Navigate through challenges
C - Commit to a plan
E - Enjoy being you
