“Randolph Macon is one of my favorite basketball camps to attend in the summer and the winter. I enjoy Coach Merkel and the Randolph Macon Basketball players. It is pretty cool that the players are our coaches. I always learn something new at the camp. I enjoy all of the classes, drills, contests and the competition. I also enjoy attending some of their Basketball games during their season. Coach Merkel received ODAC Coach of the Year and Buzz Anthony received the ODAC Player of the year. Pretty awesome to know them, play with them and to be coached by them.”

“Shooting camp has given me drills to improve on my shooting. I improved even in the two days I was there and can't wait to see what these drills do for me in the long run.”

“My two boys couldn’t say enough great things about their coaches. They are encouraging, enthusiastic and wonderful role models. Coach Hannah is awesome! She coached both Jack and Webb the past two years.”

“Coach Merkel, I’m reaching out to you thanking you in a manner I don’t usually do. Especially for email is my last means of communication with someone. However it seemed most appropriate in thanking you for an incredible week. I’ve attended many camps before including William and Mary’s. One would think a division 1 basketball camp would be ever so comprehensive. I found out very fast that it’s Randolph Macon’s camp that I find myself learning the most and being engaged with the game and my coaches. The whole program has shaped me not into a better player but also a better version of myself in terms of attitude and behavior. As I said my coach happened to be the most mature coach of them all which happened to rub off on me a bit. Nonetheless I couldn’t thank one person enough for the opportunity I have been given which is your camp. My thanks extend to my coaches in both skills and shooting camp. And you if course for being attentive to the sort of people and players we campers were. Helping us better ourselves on more levels than one. I hope to make it to many games this year and to support the program and that blessed me with more than enough to be the best player I can be. Thank you coach.”
