Is your kid a Pacers fan who wants to learn from a pro?
Tyrese Haliburton is giving kids another opportunity this summer.
The face of the Pacers is set to host his fourth annual youth basketball camp on June 28–29 at the Aletto Family Sports Center in Carmel, Indiana.
The two-day event, organized in partnership with ProCamps, will run from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day and is open to boys and girls entering grades 1 through 8 (or ages 6 to 15).
Campers will receive hands-on instruction from Haliburton and local coaches, focusing on basketball fundamentals, games, and skill-building activities — plus, there’s plenty of fun.
Attendees will also receive a team photo, autograph, and camp t-shirt, in addition to working directly with Haliburton. In previous years, some of his Pacers teammates and coaches have made surprise appearances, adding to the excitement of the camp.
The cost to attend is $299 per camper. However, Fieldhouse Files subscribers can use promo code “SCOTT” at checkout to save 10%. (Click here for more details and to sign up.)
Growing up in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, Haliburton never had the chance to attend a basketball camp led by an NBA player — those simply didn’t exist. That’s why giving back through events like this means so much to him.
And hosting an annual camp makes Haliburton, 25, feel like a kid again.
“You can see the sparkle in a kid’s eye sometimes when you talk to them,” he said at a previous camp. “That’s just the coolest thing.
“Some kids here, I think they like watching basketball more than they like playing sometimes, but they’re just excited to be here. I think that’s the fun part about being a kid: You get to experiment with different sports and see what you like and what you don’t like. And they’re just having fun out here.”
I’ve covered each of the first three camps. The kids have a great time, they’re getting coached up, and Haliburton bounces from station to station — before welcoming a select group to challenge him in 1-on-1 and shooting contests.
Since being acquired by the Pacers in 2022, Haliburton has become a cornerstone of the franchise and a fan favorite in Indianapolis. He’s a two-time All-Star and Olympic gold medalist.
