Summer Camps

What do you think of camps that have you referee an AAU tournament? I do not like it at all. I think the organizers are making money off campers backs two ways and the second way really annoys me. First they get the campers money for attending and this I agree with but when the camp is during an AAU tournament, someone else gets the campers game fee and I think that is pretty low.

I have been to 2 two summer camps in the past and both coincided with real basketball summer camps and I felt like this was a very good situation. My last camp was IAABO camp 2 years ago at Bryant College but now that the coach has left Bryant, the RI IAABO camp seems to have changed into reffing an AAU tourney and now I am hesitant to go. Note that when I went 2 summers ago the camp was great and I learned a lot.
