Collegiate Sports Camps in Virginia
Virginia has more than its share of colleges, and of great college teams. No matter what your favorite sport might be—with the possible exception of surfing and ice hockey—you can probably find a collegiate sports camp in Virginia that you’ll want to attend.
Some camps are actually sponsored by the colleges, while some simply host a camp session on their campus, with the use of their facilities. If you’re a serious high school athlete who would like to continue to compete on the college level, either option gives you the opportunity to be seen by college coaches and recruiters. Baseball, football, basketball and, increasingly, lacrosse are the sports most likely to offer scholarships, but with a little sleuthing, you might find a college interested in a less mainstream sport as well.
Specialized Sports Camps in Virginia
Sports camps in Virginia that are held on college campuses are also good bets if you want to attend a specialty camp. Advanced athletes can often take advantage of the superior coaching available at camps that focus intensely on a specific skill set. In football, there are specialty camps for quarterback, offensive and defensive linemen, and kickers, punters and long snappers. Basketball camps may focus on post or perimeter positions, while baseball camps specialize in hitting, pitching and fielding. These camps are generally coached by the college’s own coaching staff and by current or former team members.
Don’t count out college camps for the small fry, either. Campuses that host large camp franchises often have day camps or even half-day camps for little ones as young as five. If you live near a college (and in Virginia, that’s fairly likely), investigate the possibilities of a sports camp near you.
