No Limits Sports Camp is a fun way for kids to experience several different sports or focus on their primary sport of choice. Campers get to choose which sport they want to work on each session of the day including basketball, volleyball, soccer, flag football, bocci, and baseball. Campers will be taught the basic fundamentals of each sport and given an opportunity to use those skills in team games.
Camp also includes group games and water day on Fridays. Campers get a camp shirt each week they attend until they have all 5 camp shirts. Both half Day (8am – 1pm) and full day (7am – 6pm) sessions are available.
