Edgecombe-Martin County EMC is now accepting applications for scholarships to attend basketball camps at two North Carolina universities this summer.
Young men can apply for a scholarship to attend the Carolina Basketball Camp which will be held June 25-28 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Young women can apply for a spot at the Wolfpack Women’s Basketball Camp which will be held June 15-18 at N.C. State University in Raleigh.
The scholarships cover all expenses at the overnight camps, which provide a glimpse into life on a college campus. Campers stay overnight in dorms, learn fundamental skills that will help them excel on and off the court and receive individual and group instruction from Division 1 coaches to enhance their basketball and team-building abilities.
To apply, students must be a sixth or seventh grade student during the 2025-2026 school year. The application opens this month, and must be submitted by March 31. To learn more and apply, visit ncelectriccooperatives.com/sports-camps.
