Detroit Pistons x 3C Sports Camp Empowers Local Youth Through Free Basketball Training

Detroit, MI —This summer, the Detroit Pistons partnered with 3C Sports to deliver a powerful community initiative: a free four-day basketball camp designed to uplift and empower young athletes in Southeastern Michigan.

Young athletes sharpen their basketball skills during a dynamic training session at the Detroit Pistons x 3C Sports Camp, held at the Dick & Sandy Dauch Club. The energy was high as players ran drills, learned teamwork, and embodied the camp's mission to empower through sports.

Held at a local recreation center, the camp welcomed dozens of players who spent their days sharpening their on-court skills, learning teamwork, and building lasting relationships with peers and coaches alike. The Pistons x 3C Sports Basketball Camp not only provided professional-grade coaching but also fostered a sense of community and motivation through every drill, scrimmage, and session.

A proud moment captured as one young athlete, Keagan Gibbs receives the Offensive Player Award at the Detroit Pistons x 3C Sports Camp. Recognized for smart offensive play and strong teamwork, his smile says it all—confidence, growth, and inspiration for the next generation.

At the close of the camp, every athlete was awarded a medal in recognition of their hard work and participation. In addition, top performers were given personalized certificates by their coaches, highlighting their standout effort and progress. Each camper also received a Swag Bag filled with Pistons-branded gear and surprises to take home.

This initiative is a shining example of how strategic partnerships can bring impactful, no-cost opportunities to Detroit’s youth — giving them both memories and momentum that last well beyond the hardwood.

Each young athlete at the Detroit Pistons x 3C Sports Camp received an exclusive swag bag featuring a “No Limits” T-shirt and water bottle, reminding them to believe you can be great. A simple gift, packed with lasting impact and motivation.

Up next: The momentum continues at the Hiram E. Jackson Club, as part of the ongoing mission to #BeImpactful and grow local access to sports, mentorship, and skill development.
