The camp uniquely integrates basketball with STEM education, providing middle school girls with hands-on learning experiences and exposure to female role models in science and technology fields.
The 2026 Phoenix Mercury STEM Camp Powered by Honeywell Aerospace offers middle school girls a hands-on introduction to science, technology, engineering, and math, using basketball as an engaging entry point. Students rotate through interactive learning stations that blend basketball gameplay with concepts from coding, physics, and engineering design. The curriculum is developed in collaboration with Science of Sport, a nonprofit specializing in using sports to teach STEM. Campers gain practical skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork through activities like exploring the physics of basketball, understanding design principles, and engaging with coding challenges. The camp also features career panels with women working in STEM fields, providing valuable role models and insights into potential career pathways in aerospace and other technical industries. The aim is to build academic confidence, foster inclusion, and support career exploration among young girls, inspiring them to pursue future STEM careers.
A typical day involves rotating through interactive learning stations that blend basketball activities with STEM concepts such as coding, physics, and engineering design, along with hearing from women professionals in STEM fields.
