Camp Philosophy and Policy

Maranatha hosts summer sports camps as a supplement to the mission statement of its Athletics Department: The Mission of the Maranatha Athletic Department is to develop leadership skills in the student-athlete through skilled training, Godly mentoring, and intercollegiate competition.

As such, campers experience what it's like to participate in college-level drills and receive college-level instruction that is tailored to their individual needs. All camps, for both boys and girls, offers a college-level experience in the court and in the classroom.

We believe there is one God, the creator and preserver of all things. Through Him, male and female were created, and all human life is sacred and cared for from conception (Genesis 1:27). MBU offers summer camps according to God’s providential design of male and female individuals and requires participants to register and participate accordingly.

Background Checks/Registration

For all summer camps, ALL coaches/sponsors MUST complete an adult registration and background check (Paid camp staff do not need to fill out a registration, but just a background check). Please complete the items below prior to registration.
