The camp provides a unique blend of active sports programming with scientific exploration, allowing campers to understand the 'why' behind physical activity.
The CSU Youth Sport Camp: Sport Science offers an engaging exploration into the science of human movement. Campers actively investigate concepts such as muscle physiology, understanding how muscles work and contribute to physical activity. They delve into biomechanics, learning about the mechanics of movement and how forces affect the body during sports. The program also covers exercise psychology, exploring the mental aspects of performance and motivation. Additionally, campers gain knowledge in nutrition, understanding its role in fueling the body for activity, and cardiovascular fitness, learning about heart health and endurance. The camp aims to promote lifelong physical activity and healthy lifestyles through hands-on experiences and skill development in a fun and safe environment.
Campers arrive between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. for a full day of activities focused on sport science, concluding at 4 p.m., with pickup by 4:30 p.m.
This camp is ideal for middle school students (ages 10 and up) who are curious about how the human body works in relation to sports and exercise.
