Our favorite time of year is here, and we can’t wait to start our “More Than” Sports camps again! While we were a little worried at first about how exactly we could make them happen given the COVID-19 situation, we were committed to finding a way for them to go on even if they’re a little different than normal. So if you have ever wanted to host a “More Than” Sports Camp right in your backyard, you’re going to be just as excited for our brand new “More Than” Backyard Camps as we are.

Our plan is to hold a series of mini camps June 15-18 and June 22-25 in your backyard, if you’ll have us. We’ll bring the fun, games and skill development and you can bring your family, friends, neighbors and anyone else you don’t mind hosting. We’ve designed soccer, basketball, flag football/tag and playground mini sessions that you can register to host, and when you do we’ll send one of our two counselor groups to lead your backyard through some skills, drills and other activities.

We understand you may have safety concerns, so we’ll be taking extra care to properly sanitize daily use equipment and requiring each child to bring their own water. However, we will not be requiring our coaches to wear masks, and if you agree to hosting a session it will be assumed that you’re comfortable with your child sharing high fives with staff. We will not provide snacks during the session, but we will still give out popsicles at the end.

We’re hopeful that we will be able to return to “More Than” Sports camps as usual for the month of July, but we’ll keep you updated on any changes through the website and our social media accounts.
