Sports Camp (Grades K - 8)

Our co-ed sports camp program is designed so campers can focus on their athletic skill development while enjoying indoor and outdoor recreational time playing ALL sports.

Our sports camp scheduling philosophy provides sports activities each day (i.e. basketball, football, hockey, baseball, soccer, volleyball, etc.) to keep your child active, while also providing a specialty activity (boating, art, fishing, etc.), as well as swimming for a well-rounded day.

Each week sports camp focuses on a different sport of the week allowing campers to be exposed to even more sports throughout the summer. Campers will participate in clinics that teach campers the basic fundamentals and rules while encouraging them to participate in a variety of sports regardless of skill level. At the end of each week campers will get the opportunity to test their new skills by participating in the BIG GAME!

The Camp Shalom Sports program will feature more sports instruction and skill development.

A philosophy that we call MADE

  • Maximum Activity (no one wants to spend their summer waiting on the side lines)
  • Attitude (through sports, we develop children’s self-confidence & leadership skills)
  • Development (It does not matter how experienced your child is in sports, all sessions will challenge the more skilled player and the novice so both feel they have achieved success)
  • Enjoyment (we’re all here to have fun, right?)
