Whether you’re a beginner, or more advanced, these camps will allow you to elevate your game to the next level. And if one wasn’t enough – we are giving you two Northfield Mount Hermon camps this summer!
The camp is open to all ages and ability levels. Each participant will be assessed and grouped with others of a similar age and skill level. Adjustments to groups may be made throughout the week to ensure campers have the opportunity to train with and compete against different players. Through a mix of drills, games, and scrimmages, each camper will have the chance to learn, improve, and enjoy field hockey in a supportive and dynamic environment.
This camp must comply with the regulations of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and be licensed by the Local Board of Health.

CAMP REVIEWS
“This was the first year our daughter has attended a sports camp. What a wonderful introduction to the game of field hockey. Your staff seemed so friendly and knowledgeable and really helped our daughter develop some skills and interest in the sport.”
Jenny W.
“My daughter did not stop talking about how great this camp was. She made so many new friends throughout the week, and received so any prizes they barely fit in the car! She loved the meals she ate there and did not complain around one. I cannot believe how excited she was to go back next summer and be able to spend more time with her new friends!”
Will T.
