King Williams College in Castletown, Isle of Man
NBC UK basketball camps are located in Castletown, Isle of Man and Worcester, England. The original NBC UK basketball camp is located on the beautiful Isle of Man, in the Irish Sea off the North West coast of England. NBC Camps has offered our American Basketball coaching and philosophy for over ten years on the Isle.
About the campus
Located in the middle of the Irish Sea, the Isle of Man is home to King Williams College. King Williams College was one of the first public schools in the 1800's.
Campers will be staying in a nice residential dormitory. Each room accommodates between two and ten campers, with nearby bathroom facilities. You do not need to request a roommate before camp begins. When you register for camp, have your preferred roommate(s) with you and we will endeavour to room you together. If you have no preference, we will match you with someone of the same gender and similar age. The cafeteria and food service provides nutritious meals, with an all-you-can-eat breakfast and dinner service. A packed lunch will be provided daily.
About the basketball venues
The basketball venues are located all over the Island and include the National Sports Centre (NSC), which has two full size courts with wooden floors and glass backboards. A basketball enthusiasts’ dream!
Camp Registration
Camp registration starts at 1pm at King William College, Castletown, IOM. Campers will either arrive at KWC from the Douglas ferry terminal (see Travel section below) or under their own steam.
Travel
Round trip transportation by ferry from the mainland to IOM is included in the cost of camp. Campers travelling from the UK mainland will meet at the ferry terminal where tickets for the ferry are issued for all NBC campers by our NBC representative. From this time all travel is included.
The ferry to the IOM leaves from the Liverpool IOM ferry terminal early on the first day of camp and will return to Heysham late on the last day of camp. (Please note that the departure and arrival ports are different) Parents and campers will be informed of the meeting and sailing times once they have been confirmed.
Those not require the ferry transfer will receive a £20 discount on the £280 camp price. Campers can fly to the IOM from several airports in the UK. An NBC representative will meet you at the airport and transportation will be arranged to camp.

About Staff
We select outstanding people who are of high integrity and character, work ethic and willingness to help athletes be their best. We work hard to hire college players, college and high school coaches and dynamic competent teachers of the game.
Special Events
The Thursday of camp is D-Day. A day on which we will push you to your limit both physically and mentally. If you are up for a challenge, this is the place to be…
We run a special Carnival on one night of our camp, when campers compete against staff and each other in fun games. Popular games in the past have been 1 v 1 and 2 v 2 against our coaches! A wonderful way to relax after an intense day at camp.
On our last night of camp, we have a late night pizza feast to round off the camp experience.
Parents are welcome to attend any aspect of camp. We would particularly like to encourage parents join us for the All Star games, League finals and closing Award Ceremony on the final day at camp.
