Sports Camp

Sports Camp is designed to offer our community's student-athletes a comprehensive foundation encompassing sports instruction, skill development, a genuine love for sports, and a strong emphasis on sportsmanship. We understand that honing skills and mastering drills are pivotal for an athlete's growth, but equally crucial is ensuring that the sports camp experience is safe, enjoyable, and educational, fostering a "passion for the game". With a range of sports throughout the summer, our aim is for athletes to explore multiple athletic opportunities.

Participants are grouped into units based on entering grades: Pee Wee (K & 1), JV (2 & 3), Varsity (4 & 5), and Tzofim (6 - 8). Weekly camp special events and dress-up days add an extra layer of excitement. JV Sports campers (grades 2 & 3) will embark on a field trip every other week, while Varsity (grades 4 & 5) travel on trips weekly, and Tzofim (grades 6 - 8) will venture on three field trips a week, including one to the Palm Beach Gardens JCC for specialty programs and additional sports programming.

The Camp Shalom Sports program will feature more sports instruction and skill development.

A philosophy that we call MADE

  • Maximum Activity (no one wants to spend their summer waiting on the side lines)
  • Attitude (through sports, we develop children’s self-confidence & leadership skills)
  • Development (It does not matter how experienced your child is in sports, all sessions will challenge the more skilled player and the novice so both feel they have achieved success)
  • Enjoyment (we’re all here to have fun, right?)
