I don't know if you're referring to a camp like the one I helped with, but we are a teaching and networking association only. We assign NO games. Our clinicians are mostly HS state tournament level officials and our only interest is making people better for a reasonable cost. $75 for 4 hours of classroom and 7 hours of on-court. Pizza dinner and lunch/drinks included.

In 7 hours, I got to work with 22 different officials and wrote up pages of notes that will be passed on. We also worked with those people during the games and reviewed with them at breaks, halftime, and postgame.
