Sports Camp (access Kids)
Sports Camp runs Monday - Thursday from 1:00-4:00pm each day
Ages: 4yrs through entering 5th grade
Give your child more than just a camp - give them four days of intentional coaching, positive mentorship, and spiritual growth. They’ll leave better in their sport and even stronger in their faith.
Each child can choose one sport to receive hands-on coaching and instruction where they'll develop real skills to use in their sport. Plus each day will consist of practical teaching from the Bible to help them develop their own relationship with God.
There’s also an option for preschoolers (Ages 4 & 5yrs) with age-appropriate games and activities meant to develop a strong foundation for future sports.
Cost: $59 for first child, $39 for second child, $29 for third child (and any after that)
