Directors Note to Campers
"We are so excited to be back on the field coaching and connecting with our athletes this Summer. We are eager to bring back a fantastic coaching staff motivated to teach and share their passion for the sport of field hockey. We are equally excited to say that we have a new dorm this year that will allow us to be together! We look forward to helping you with your individual game and can't wait to bring teams together for pre-season bonding!
I have been teaching and coaching for close to 30 years and the best part of camp is watching our coaches teach and share their love of the game with our campers. We believe when our athletes gain confidence and see improvements, they will be inspired to continue to work hard and improve their skills and knowledge of the game." - Laura Galopim

For general questions about our field hockey camps please see our FAQ page.
TEAM DISCOUNT
If you have a group of eight or more campers registering for the same camp, each camper is eligible for a discount. Please have someone contact the US Sports Camps office at 1-800-645-3226 with the names of each camper in the group and we will create a unique discount code for your group. Campers may then register individually through the website at their convenience and apply the offer code during check out. *Discount amount varies by program. Please call for details.
SCHOLARSHIPS
We cannot offer scholarships due to NCAA regulations. Our affiliation with NCAA coaches and schools puts us in a position where any scholarship money can be seen as an inducement to a future collegiate athlete. This puts our coaches and our host universities in jeopardy of damaging their status with the NCAA and incurring penalties at the hands of their organizing body.
Camps are open to any and all entrants, limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender.
Parents have the right to review camp procedures on background checks, health care, discipline policies, and grievance procedures upon request.

July 21, 2023: Camper Quote: "I loved having the night games, those were very enjoyable--they challenged me outside of my comfort zone.I also loved the college talk. Even though I'm a freshman I found the information very helpful and I'm very glad I went. Also having the extra time to bond/hangout with my new friends was great. I also loved going to the lounge room and hangout with them. "
