The online registration system works best with Firefox and Chrome.

Due to high demand, many camps fill prior to the registration deadline and early registration is recommended. Once a camp reaches capacity or the registration deadline, we are unable to add additional campers. Walk-up registrations are not accepted for any camp or clinic.

In the event a camp does not reach capacity, the following registration deadlines apply:

Overnight Camps close 2 days prior to the camp.
Day Camps and Clinics close at 11:59pm the night before camp.

The Princeton Field Hockey coaching staff has designed the Elite Camp for the athlete and the team who have aspirations to take their game to the next level.

In the months leading up to the camp, the Princeton coaching staff will work with your HS coach to ensure we are working toward your team goals for the upcoming season. We will address tactical areas, individual skill development and team direction. For the camper coming to camp as an individual, we will place you on a team with other athletes of a similar experience level. Sessions will be held on Bedford Field, the world class water-astroturf home of the 2012 National Champion Princeton Tigers, as well as the field turf at 1952 Stadium and Plummer Field at Roberts Stadium.
