Jump Start Sports Camps are fun-oriented and highly instructional. The relaxed and nurturing atmosphere enables children to learn, grow, make friends, and have a meaningful summer experience. Jump Start Sports Camps are fun oriented and focus on fundamentals, but more advanced players will learn more advanced concepts and will be coached at their ability and level of understanding. We utilize innovative drills, competitions, and games to help teach as well as to make the program more fun for children.

Morning Activities: We’ll begin each day with an “all-camp” activity such as Capture the Flag, British Bulldog, Red Rover, or a scavenger hunt. On hot days, campers will cool off with spirited water games.

Theme Sport: The camp features a different sport each week. Coaches and counselors with expertise in the featured sport implement a program designed specifically for the ability and understanding of each age group. Campers learn about a different aspect of the sport each day and apply what they’ve learned by playing a fun, low-key game.

Afternoon Electives: In the afternoon, campers choose from a large menu of activities including, outdoor water fun, ultimate Frisbee, and a variety of field games and gym games.

Weekly Themes:

June 22nd - June 26th: Soccer Camp

Children get their kicks at the World Cup Soccer Camp! Players learn foot skills, passing, shooting, goal keeping, and team concepts. Each day, they are also divided by gender and skill level and participate in games. The last few days of camp, small teams represent a country and participate in a fun “World Cup” competition.

June 29th - July 3rd: Football and Cheerleading Camp

The All Pro Football Camp will teach campers the basic fundamentals of football in an atmosphere that emphasizes sportsmanship, teamwork and the joy of sports. This program is ideal for children who have never played organized football, as well as those who have played youth football for several years. In addition to learning fundamentals, techniques and strategies of the sport, campers will participate in flag football games every day as well as fun games and contests such as “Punt, Pass, and Kick” and “NFL Fast Football”. The week will culminate in a fun “Super Bowl” on the last day of camp.

Campers will learn a variety of cheers, jumps, kicks and movements. We’ll also play fun cheerleading games and decorate crazy uniforms or pom-poms to use at an exhibition on the last day of camp. “Three Cheers” camps provide children a highly active endeavor in a non-competitive environment that fosters fun and the development of friendships.

July 6th - July 10th: Lacrosse Camp

Boys and girls can learn to play one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. Lacrosse is action packed and lots of fun! The sport has elements of soccer, football, basketball and hockey.

All players will receive training on the fundamentals, including: passing and catching; fielding ground balls; cradling; spacing and positioning; and defense. Then they will be divided by gender and age to play fun game situational scrimmages, which will help them learn more and enjoy the fast-paced action of the game.
