Q:What measures do you have in place to ensure the safety of all campers?

A: On  the closed campus of Mount Holyoke College, we take every precaution to ensure the safety of our campers.  All staff strive to promote and teach safe play on the field. Our staff is well versed in the dangers of dehydration and the importance of sunscreen. We provide ample water, Gatorade, and sunscreen for campers to use throughout the day.

We also have a certified athletic trainer on-site 24/7 for support at the fields/dorms and to help administer medications, observe campers and attend to minor injuries. The athletic trainer and counselors are also on-site 24/7 to supervise all camp activities. If necessary, we also will provide or arrange transportation to the hospital in case of an emergency. Parents/guardians are encouraged to contact our directors with any concerns about the health of their child.

Q: What is the cancelation policy?

A: If you need to cancel your registration there is a $100 cancelation fee up until June 1st. All cancelations after this date are nonrefundable (with director discretion for partial refunds).

Q: How old do I have to be to attend camp?

Q: What is the level of play at camp and do I have to be an expert?
