Fork Union Basketball School was established in 1985 under the direction of Coach Fletcher Arritt.

During the school year, Coach Arritt teaches and coaches the post-graduate basketball team at Fork Union Military Academy.  Over the past 40 years, more than 200 of his players have gone on to play Division I basketball.  Throughout Thomas Gymnasium, one can view an impressive list of college jerseys donated by former players.  The same players, along with other well respected players, are the core of the teaching staff at the Fork Union Basketball School.  

While camp is in session, Coach Arritt monitors the details to ensure that each individual camper is given the chance to grow as a basketball player.  He continues to instill his enthusiasm and love of the sport to all that come in contact with him.  Throughout the 20 plus years of the camp, his lovely wife has also been present to help with any non basketball details that might arise.

The camp is located on the 500 acre campus of Fork Union Military Academy in Fork Union, Virginia.  FUMA is on Route 15 approximately 10 miles south of Zion Crossroads. 20 miles from Charlottesville, 50 miles from Richmond, and 100 miles from D.C.

Transportation
