Is it pre- mature to seek out a camp experience?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
If you don't have any experience, don't worry. Just be up front about it with the camp and your clinicians. They'll be gentle with you.

And no, it's not too early. You're experienced in other sports so you know already that the only way to learn is to get out there and do it.

Just remember not to wear your football shirt on the court (yep, I remember a guy doing this at a basketball camp years ago). Those wide stripes and pockets are dead giveaways
