Dear Takoma Sportscamps Families,
I am sorry to have to announce, for the first time since 1996, we will be unable to offer camp this summer due to Covid-19. Full refunds will be applied to your credit card through our registration website ActiveWorks within the next two weeks.
I was hoping to be able to provide camp this summer, more than any other year, but I don't feel we can do it safely under these circumstances.
Please stay safe, and I look forward to seeing everyone next summer.
Please email me at tksportscamps@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Louis Hoelman
2020 Takoma Sportscamps Softball Camp Sessions:
Softball Camp Daily Schedule
Morning Camp Talk:
Daily overview by Coach Hoelman, of skils, stations, contests, game schedule, and daily reminders about sportsmanship, safety, and dealing with the heat.
Warm Up:
Campers participate in a whole camp softball warm-up, to prepare them for the day.
Morning Stations:
Campers participate in four to six stations each day, working on all the skills invovled in softball.
Lunch:
Campers eat lunch in an air conditioned cafeteria. Campers bring their own lunch, except on Wednesdays (pizza day). A small snack bar is also available for campers to purchase drinks and snacks.
Cool Down:
Campers relax before their afternoon games, in an air conditioned gym. A short portion of a baseball movie (League of Their Own) is shown, "stump the coach" is played, and the "play of the day" award is presented.
Afternoon Games:
Campers participate in a week long tournament, which allows them to work on their new skills in game situations to maximize improvement.
Fridays:
Campers participate in morning Olympic stations, where campers compete at eight skills stations as a culminating activity for skill development. In the afternoon, campers play in their championship or consolation activity, followed by a brief awards ceremony in the auxiliary gym.
