The camp provides a unique blend of active sports programming with scientific exploration, allowing campers to understand the 'science of movement' through hands-on experience.
The CSU SPUR Sport Science Camp offers campers ages 9-13 an engaging exploration into the science of human movement. Through active programming and discussions, participants delve into fundamental concepts of physiology, biomechanics, exercise psychology, nutrition, and cardiovascular fitness. The camp emphasizes skill development, teamwork, and promoting healthy lifestyles. Activities often include various team sports like basketball, soccer, and flag football, alongside educational components that explain the 'why' behind physical activity. Campers gain a deeper understanding of how their bodies work, the importance of exercise, and practical knowledge for maintaining a healthy and active life. The program aims to foster a lifelong appreciation for physical activity and well-being in a fun and social environment.
A typical day involves morning attendance and stretching, followed by sport-specific lessons and active programming. Afternoons may include swimming, a movie, and a scrimmage.
This camp is ideal for active middle school students who are curious about how their bodies work and want to explore various sports and physical activities in a fun, educational setting.
