Sports Academy

A Sports Fanatics Dream

Sports Academy is geared towards a camper (completed SK through to Grade 7) who is developing an interest in sports and athletics. Previous sports experience is not required. Daily schedules are designed to separately reflect the needs and attention spans of young and older athletes, offering an appropriate balance of instruction and gameplay. We deliver skill-based activities in addition to popular camp sports games so that each session is super-spirited & fun. 

With a constant focus on teamwork, sportsmanship and fair play, our Sports Academy campers end each session with that wonderful feeling of both individual and team accomplishment.

A Typical Day

RHSA Rookies (Completed SK to Grade 2): Our staff will be developing programs to ensure campers are experiencing a fun and relaxing sports environment whether you are a first time or returning camper. This program will help develop our campers love for sports and athletics while maintaining many of our aspects of traditional camp. They will join, traditional camp for Friday flagpoles. Each sports period will develop basic transferable athletic skills through a play environment. Campers will enjoy 11 activities each week, as well each day campers will have 2 instructional swims. This is the perfect program for the up and coming young athlete. 

RHSA Veterans (Complete Grade 3 and Up): Our staff will be developing programs to ensure campers are experiencing a fun and relaxing sports environment. This program will help develop our campers love for sports and athletics while providing an opportunity to develop their skills in a sport of their choosing each week. Campers will enjoy 11 activities each week, including some of our traditional camp classics such as ropes, canoe and archery. Each afternoon, campers will get to choose a sport they would like to participate in. This double period will allow them to develop sport-specific skills while participating in a team based environment against other campers similarly aged. Campers will have 2 instructional swims on a daily basis. This is the perfect program for the camper that has developed a love for sports. 

Swimming at Sports Academy

Sports Academy campers receive two instructional swim periods daily with “Free-Swims” every Friday afternoon. Our swim staff are all qualified and certified instructors and lifeguards, trained to deliver the Lifesaving Society program to all. We strive to make children independent, capable and confident around the water, leaving parents to appreciate their children’s learned ability to play safely around water.

Sports Academy Leadership

The staff are lead by a team of experienced supervisors under the leadership of the Coordinating team. This team is responsible for creating the unique sports-specific programming that sets this program apart from traditional camp. Staff and campers alike benefit from the many years of experience these leaders bring, while they work hard to ensure that your camper is having the time of his/her life!
