The team behind Red Star Camp UK are excited to confirm a brand new addition to the Red Star UK portfolio with our new elite proposition.
Following extensive growth over the last five years, and having already sold out our annual Red Star performance camp in just 5 days for 2025, we are left with the unique opportunity to extend our offer to young people based in the UK.
New for 2025, we will be offering the first ever ‘Red Star Elite Week’ in August next year, with the aspiration of providing a platform for young people whose potential is already evident, to match up with the best the UK has to offer. Furthermore, they will work with hand-picked Coaching staff, professional role-models and sports science professionals to advance, educate and develop the individual’s comprehension of the elite-professional domain.
The first Red Star Elite Week will take place at Leeds Beckett University in Leeds and is open to young men aged 15-18 who are born between between 1st September 2007 & 31st August 2010. Applicants must be enrolled or considering enrolment at an EABL or CBL institution for the 2025/26 academic year. Applications may also be considered from those playing Junior National League Premier at U16 or U18, or on a case-by-case basis from those not currently involved at this level.
Red Star Elite Week participants will be engaged in:
High-level technical detail
Position-specific curriculum
Individual development plans both physically and technically
Lectures & seminars from global experts
Competitive basketball in both 3x3 and 5x5 formats
Opportunities to network with and learn from, elite-level pro players & coaches
Advice and guidance for post-19 exit routes both collegiate & pro
Sports science & nutrition advice
Access to film of all competitive play
Red Star Elite Week will be priced as follows:
Residential - £550
Non-Residential - £400
Red Star UK Director Matt Newby was delighted to confirm the first ever Red Star 'Elite Week' following significant interest in the offer:
“Following a long summer of planning and preparation, we are finally at the stage where we are confident and happy with the offer for our prospective Elite Week campers. The unique opportunity has arisen to add another level of development and challenge, for those who have aspirations of taking their game to a point which gives them options both domestically and internationally. We feel that bringing a strong cohort of players together in this format will invariably provide a melting pot of competition, learning and exposure. We will be assembling a staff which will ensure the campers have the best opportunity to maximise their potential.
In the first cycle of Red Star Elite Week, this will be an all-male proposition, however the aspiration is that we will mirror this with an all-female offer in 2026.”
