On-line viewing of camps at the Activity Registration Zone
We offer high quality sport and activity camps for children and youths - and some adult classes - ranging from sport camps to increase skill in a particular sport to activity camps where participants can try many activities and learn new skills.
Sport camps are focussed on learning or perfecting skills in a particular sport; multi-activity camps or 'combo-camps', which combine two or more sports and other physical activities provide an opportunity to sample and enjoy a variety of activities.
Our philosophy
We strive to provide the best possible learning environment in our camps, by teaching and promoting
- cooperation and good sportsmanship
- an appreciation for participation physical activity in all its forms
- health benefits that come from regular participation in physical activities
Classes take place in an inviting, inclusive, non-competitive environment, and are taught by skilled instructors or coaching staff. Some instructors may be student-athletes or students of physical education.
Camps include
- Aquatics
- Basketball
- Curling
- Football
- Golf
- Gymnastics
- Hockey
- Indoor Wall Climbing
- Resistance Training
- Soccer
- Tennis
- Track and Field sports
- Volleyball
Registration begins in March each year. The Summer Camps Guide is printed in February.
Positions are available as camp coordinators and camp leaders. Please see the Faculty's Job Opportunities section here - http://www.physedandrec.ualberta.ca/positions_avail.cfm - for information about these positions.
