Miner Summer Madness 2026

Miner Summer Madness 2026 is a women's D1 clinic hosted by UTEP, a Conference USA program in El Paso, Texas. The camp runs from June 15 to July 18, 2026, as a day-camp format (no overnight housing). Teams register as units rather than individual players. The cost is $600 per registration.

This camp is designed for high school team programs looking for summer training and exposure at a D1 venue. The format—team-based registration and a five-week span—suggests it functions as a developmental series or league rather than a single-day showcase. Families should understand that this is not a quick recruiting event where a player can drop in for evaluation; it requires committing a roster to an extended summer block. Recruits interested in UTEP or in testing themselves against college-level competition in a lower-cost Power Five conference will find value here, but this is not an elite recruiting circus.

Prospective teams should know that the head coach's attendance is not listed in the camp details, which means staff presence and active recruiting focus are unclear. The five-week duration provides extended exposure compared to a single-day clinic, but families should confirm directly with UTEP what coaching contact looks like and whether this is primarily a skills-development program or a recruiting evaluation. At $600, this is a moderate investment for a full summer series, but it is substantial for a team committing seven weeks. No recent reviews are available, so families should ask UTEP for references from teams that have attended prior years.

Miner Summer Madness works best for competitive high school teams that want consistent summer training and don't mind anchoring their June-July schedule around one program. Families chasing immediate D1 offers should consider single-day ID camps at higher-tier programs first. If your team is interested in UTEP specifically or wants a long-format developmental program without the cost of a national showcase circuit, contact UTEP directly to clarify coaching involvement and what recruiting evaluation, if any, takes place.
