Rookie Overnight Sports Camp

NEW for 2017! During Sessions 1 and 2, we will offer a 6 day Rookie Camp option for boys and girls entering grades 3-5. This unique program gives new campers a chance to check out JCC Maccabi Sports Camp during a shorter session while enjoying the sports program and community, character, and culture that makes our camp unique experience.

Volleyball
Our intensive volleyball program will challenge and motivate players of all levels to learn more about team volleyball while focusing on individual skills. Players will develop fundamentals including serving, passing, setting, and hitting and have the opportunity to encompass all these skills in traditional and fun game situations.

Softball
Hit the diamond each day to work on the fundamentals and more nuanced aspects of softball. Players will work on defense, hitting, throwing and base running, as well as the mental aspect of the sport. Camp focuses on individual skill development as well as competing as a team.

Baseball
While enjoying authentic game play, campers advance their understanding of each position and its importance to the success of the team. Improve outfield and infield fundamentals, base running, pitching techniques, hitting, and decision-making. Dive deep into the physical, mental, and philosophical elements of America’s pastime.

Basketball
Campers will improve fundamental skills of ball handling, shooting, passing, and footwork. They will learn offensive schemes and playing off the ball, as well as defensive strategy and technique. Teamwork and “talking to each other” are also integral parts of the game and are a focus of our program.

Soccer
Experience the ins and outs of soccer. Improve your dribbling, passing, trapping, and shooting. Work on ball handling skills with your non-dominant foot, learn about spacing, playing off the ball, and how your role at each position shifts as game situations change. Soccer is a game of constant transitions; learn the offensive and defensive strategies and techniques of “the beautiful game”.

Tennis
Engage in the physical and intellectual elements of tennis. Campers will hone skills appropriate to their level, including stroke development, serves and returns, defense and attacks. Learn to hit harder and with improved accuracy. Play singles and doubles games, learning about strategy and improving mental stamina and physical agility.
