Team NorCal Summer Day Camps 2023 for Boys and Girls

THE BIGGEST AND BEST DAY CAMPS IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

WHY TEAM NORCAL SUMMER CAMPS FOR 2023?

 

Our 14th Year of Summer Camp Success - We have learned how to do this, and our camps get better each year - combining the best of the old and the new.  We are the largest lacrosse summer camp provider in Northern California for a good reason!

COVID-safe - Last year we hosted over 1,000 kids in our summer camps, and had a perfect safety record.   We take it seriously, and made some change for health reasons that actually made our camps better camps!  

Pro, College and Team NorCal Coaches - Our coaching roster is unmatched.  Many of our travel team coaches participate in many of the camps, and returning college players and graduates are frequent guests in our Intermediate/Advanced Camps.  Our Beginner Camps are staffed by high school players and adult coaches who have the patience and the skill to teach young players how to get started in the game.  

Outstanding Locations - MidPeninsula, Palo Alto, South Bay Locations. Our locations often have turf Fields,  picnic tables and bathroom facilities - we care a lot about the atmosphere of the camp. 
 
Largest, Most Vibrant Camps in the Bay Area - Our camps average 80 players per camp (ranges from 50 to 120 depending on location).  That means there is a good range of players, so all skill levels will have critical mass, and there is a great deal of energy at a typical camp.  You'll see why we set attendance records every year and our returning camper ratio is so high!  
 
Separate Boys and Girls Tracks -  Separate fields and instructors for both games.  Girls are led by Colleen Niklaus, Director of Girls' Programs, Team NorCal and former St Ignatius Coach Varsity Head Coach, where she led them to 4 #1 rankings in the State.
 
Beginner and Intermediate/Advanced Level Camp Options - Differentiated instruction/instructors/fields for all ages (6-18 yrs)  and skill levels.  For Beginners, we start from scratch and go methodically though the fundamentals.  For Intermediate/Advanced, a 'training camp' experience for players at the travel team level or with several years of experience looking to substantially enhance their skills.  
 

Half Day, Full Day and Overnight Options - Beginners can attend half day or full day.  Intermediate/Advanced Camp is always full day.   Bear Valley Overnight is a four day, three night overnight camp in Bear Valley, California in the Sierras.  

Camp Snacks Included - Individually packaged snacks - NO shared food or drink items, per County Health COVID Guidelines
 
Free Loaner Equipment - We have full gear - sticks, helmets, gloves, mouthpiece and pads available for boy and girl beginners to use during the camp.  If you have some or all of the equipment, we encourage you to bring it, but if not, you are covered!
 
Camp Jersey - All campers get a reversible Team NorCal jersey to use and keep! 
 

Non-Lacrosse Activities -  While we love lacrosse, we find it best to occasionally feather in other co-ed all camp activities like Capture the Flag, Sharks and Minnows, and Lacrosse Baseball and Olympics to help campers make more friends and also keep interest high.
