Nike Field Hockey Camp at the University of Mary Washington

super fun!

July 26, 2018: The facility was outstanding and room accommodations were great. Food at cafeteria was very good in general. She felt she received excellent instruction and learned many new skills. She described it in brief to me as “super fun.” A very positive first sleepaway camp experience. She looks forward to returning next year.

Always excited to be there!

July 30, 2017: Melissa was so happy and excited about this camp! She loved playing games against another team as they had not done this in school. Enjoyed the other campers, was always excited about being there, wished the camp had been longer and has already asked to return next year. Really improved her skills! Thank you so much!

Thank you!

 July 27, 2017: When I picked her up and we made our way back to Richmond, Paige talked the whole way about her time at UMW. She loved the coaches and felt very encouraged by Jesse in particular. As a GK it is sometimes difficult to find a camp that really serves their needs, but I feel like you all did a great job in working specifically with them and their particular needs. Among other highlights, we heard all about the skits, freeze pops and the exciting championship shoot out, and I know she has a positive experience. Lastly, I thought it was a great idea to have the GK room together, as it gave them some bonding time with someone else that understands their position. I also think the camp was a good length - not too long, and not too short! Really and truly, thank you all for your organization, your hard work, and your support of the girls!

Perfect for all levels

This camp really taught me everything I should know. It helped me review things i already knew. The coaches and staff were really nice. I enjoyed the camp a lot! I would definitely go to the University of Mary Washington camp again next year. If your child wants to learn how to play or already knows sign them up because this camp is perfect for all levels.

Helped build new skills

Nike field hockey camp was very helpful in helping me build new skills and fixing things that I was doing wrong. I found the camp very fun, as well as informational.

Excellent Organization

The organization by the staff was excellent from the minute you arrived for check-in. I was really impressed how organized the entire camp was. I intend to send my granddaughter next year. The only other thing I will do differently is to have her stay overnight for the three days. Keep up the good work and keep hiring the exceptional coaches and staff.

All around good

The Unversity of Mary Washington Nike Field Hockey Camp is a wonderful camp for all levels. Location is good, housing and meals are good, playing field is good. They provide great coaches and instruction, and everyone appears to love the sport of field hockey. If looking for a safe, overnight camp with exellent instruction, this is a great choice. My daughter has been to this camp for 3 years in a row now, and just loves it.

Loved the intensity

My daughter came home from camping looking for the next camp. She absolutely loved the intesity of the camp, Coach Woodie, and the interaction with her teammates. Nike must do everything well!

Very pleased

My daughter has an extremely high passion for this sport. She loves playing and learning to be a better player. This camp had wonderful coaches with much knowledge they have gained in national and international playing levels. We were very lucky to have the coaches we had this year. Very pleased with the entire program and we are looking forward to attending this same camp again next year.

Covered all Aspects

“The Nike field hockey camp does a good job of making sure that girls are instructed in all areas of game play and making sure that they play often enough to enforce new things that are taught.”

— Parent

Great Instruction

“Instruction and drills are demonstrated very well, and described with the upmost clarity.”

— Camper

Looking Forward to Next Year

“We thought the overall camp was very organized and well run with the safety of the girls in mind. My daughter enjoyed the camp and is looking forward to next year where she thinks she will learn a lot more.”

Highly recommended

For two years in a row, my daughter has come home excited about what she learned and the fun she had! Highly recommend this camp!

Gained confidence

My daughter was fairly new to the sport with minimal experience but after attending the camp she gained more confidence and skills. I saw a great improvement. The camp motivated her to continue to work hard which resulted in her making the high school JV team.
