Play Ball

Grand Slam

We encourage participation, sportsmanship, and embracing the joy of sport. Our focus is on healthy competition. We certainly commend success on the fields and courts, yet we always emphasize personal best over team victory.

We partner with prestigious sports academies and their coaches to provide the highest level of physical competence and emotional attitude.

We begin each period with goal-setting and then move into game play. This progression allows campers to develop skills, to improve proficiency, and to master the components of each sport. State-of-the-art athletics facilities, top level equipment, enthusiastic teachers and coaches, and developmentally appropriate instructional techniques enable campers to advance. A dedicated athletics staff oversees the coaching.

Campers entering third grade and above can opt for their elective period to work with a professional coach. Those entering second grade and older can choose an athletics area as their daily Club.

Gaga Rules

GaGa, played in an octagonal “pit” and known as a “play equalizer” (because there is chance involved), is considered the gentleman’s version of dodgeball. The fast-paced, high-energy game combines dodging, striking, running, and jumping, with the objective of being the last person standing. Trust us, you’ll learn the rules and strategies quickly; GaGa is revered.
