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.

Camp Director

A graduate of Trinity College, Olsen became Head Coach at Springfield College in 2022. She had been an assistant coach at Amherst College since 2020 and previously served as an assistant coach at Westfield State University.

Olsen was a field hockey student-athlete at Trinity College where she graduated in 2017. During her time with the Bantams, Olsen served as a captain and led her squad to an appearance in the 2016 NCAA Division III Championship Tournament. She made 62 appearances as a three-year starter in her career. She also led the team in assists as a junior in 2015.

While earning a Master’s from Westfield State, Olsen transitioned to the sidelines, where she served as an assistant coach of the Owls for three years. In that time, Westfield State made their second-ever appearance in the Little East Conference Championship game.

She also gained valuable experience as a coach and site director for HTC Field Hockey Club in Connecticut. She most recently served as the Assistant Coach at Amherst College, where she helped lead the team to the NESCAC Quarterfinals in 2021. With Olsen’s help, the Mammoths were ranked as high as #6 in the country.
