Field Hockey Camps & Clinics

registration deadline

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:

Residential camps close 2 days prior to the camp.
Day camps and clinics close at 11:59pm the night before camp.
