Overview
Each of our core sports are offered during both session types — baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, swim, and multi-sport—are available to all campers.

ROOKIE CAMP

Rookie Camp packs all the fun of camp into a unique shorter experience for campers entering grades 3–7. Rookie campers will live together as one cabin group and become fully immersed in our vibrant camp community.

Campers will receive high-level coaching and sports instruction in the core sport of their choice and participate in the camp program just like all other campers. They are fully immersed in the exact same program, only with a shorter overall experience.

Rookie Camp sessions offer a perfect introduction to overnight camp for families interested in the experience but not yet ready for a full session. At the end of their stay, campers will undoubtedly be begging to stay longer!​

SIGNATURE MACCABI SPORTS CAMP

The signature Maccabi Sports Camp experience is our three-week session which takes campers on an unforgettable journey of skill development, friendship connections, memory making, and Jewish culture and community.

Whereas Rookie Camp was created and designed to give first-time campers a glimpse into our program, our signature transformative experience happens when a camper attends camp for a full session. The longer a child is at overnight camp, the deeper and more meaningful the experience. Friendships are tighter, sports skills are further developed, connections with counselors and coaches are deeper, and the feeling of confidence, pride and autonomy that come with being away from home are more firmly embedded and poised to last well beyond the camp experience.

Over the course of our 3-week session, campers will experience more time in core sports, more fun evening programs, three Shabbats, two movie nights, the competition for the highly-coveted Maccabi Cup (Olympic style multi-day competition) and everyone’s favorite event, The Talent Show, all building to create an memorable and action-packed session that culminates with final night Closing Ceremonies.

TEEN LEADER PROGRAM

Our Teen Leader program allows campers to continue improving in their sport of choice—baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, swimming, or volleyball—while also taking on special leadership roles reserved for our oldest campers. Maccabi teen campers are given more independence, free time, and special activities. 

The summer program taking place at camp will incorporate all the great things camp has to offer plus leadership opportunities and exclusive programming – plus the ultimate perk: a special teen lounge (always supervised by staff).

During the Core Sports periods, teens will continue to develop their personal skills and receive individualized instruction from our Head Coaches and Assistant Coaches, focusing on the elements of their game in which they seek to improve. They’ll also serve as leaders and role models for younger campers, helping them to develop their skills and serving as mentors and friends.

Both boys loved camp so much! From the minute we got into the car to drive home from camp and for many hours later, we heard how amazing camp was, what they did, how they loved baseball and their coaches, all about their terrific counselors Sam, David and Alex and cabin mates, the prayers they said before and after meals (we especially like when they say “ufaness!!!”, the Maccabi Cup, evening activities, the amazing food, and the list goes on!!!

I’ve heard many, many good things about the camp from this year’s campers & parents. Daniel had a great time and will be coming back next summer. Thanks again for conceiving, starting and delivering a great Jewish sports summer experience!!!

Eyal and Zah very much enjoyed the camp. They keep telling stories about their session and they probably will remember it forever. He took seriously the final advice of his coach. We, as parents, are grateful for your work and dedication.
