Each student will learn the history of baseball, football, and basketball. Students will learn the date, founder(s), purposes, formation, struggles, major record holders, and how each sport has evolved from its beginning. The history of baseball, football, and basketball cards will be introduced and each child will learn how to collect key players from each sport. Students will also learn what makes cards valuable. Each person will be given a pack of cards each day to keep. Many other cards will be given out for each specific sport that we study. For example, when we study baseball each child will be given cards of Babe Ruth, Pete Rose(career hits leader), and Rickey Henderson(career steals leader). When we study the history of football the participants will be given cards of Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Jerry Rice. On Wednesday the students will be given cards of Michael Jordan, Lebron James, and Stephen Curry. This camp is different from the one done in the fall because emphasis will be given on how each sport and athletes from each sport have changed over the decades. The cards promised are for the first 10 students who register. Please note; that you do not need to take Sports Cards Camp in order or all Sports Card Camps. Students may pick the Sports Card Camps they prefer to take.
