Sports are an important pathway to teamwork, confidence, friendship and fun! Kids love practicing their sports, improving their skills, and playing on a team. At Camp Emerson we pride ourselves on putting sportsmanship and respect first. Campers have the opportunity to participate in competitions within Emerson and between other camps!

Baseball / Softball

Pitch. Hit. Catch. Play. We have two beautiful ball fields groomed and ready for action! Campers love practicing with the ball machine, playing home run derby, and playing games. Bring your mitt – we have plenty of bats and other equipment.

Basketball

The 2 outdoor courts with lights are always in use at Camp Emerson. The coaches will teach you the basics or help you improve your ball handling, dribbling, rebounding, passing, shooting and defense. Participate in 3-on-3 tournaments, games as well as tournaments against other camps.

Flag Football

Want to be a Wide Receiver catching the Hail Mary pass or be the Quarterback throwing a spiral? More interested in Defense? Let’s see those big interceptions! Flag football is safe, fun and fast paced.

Gymnastics

Welcome have a large, indoor gymnastics facility that campers love. We’ll practice jumps, handsprings, somersaults, balance beam, and other gymnastic moves. Our excellent instructors support beginners and advanced gymnasts alike in furthering their skills.

Soccer

Work on the fundamentals including attack, defense, goaltending and ball handling. Our skill coaches are eager to pass on their love of the game. Campers look forward to “Emerson’s Cup” – a camper and counselor event and a highlight of the summer.

Tennis

We play this popular summer sport on both hard and clay courts. Bring your racquet and get ready to serve!

Volleyball

Practice setting, digging, spiking, jump serving, blocking and dunking while playing this popular Emerson sport. There are always pickup games where all are welcome.
