  • Reviews & Insider Perspectives

    The Our Kids review of McGill Sports Camp

    our take

    The McGill Sports Camp gives kids a chance to try new sports. The program is structured into three areas of specialization (sports, aquatic, creative) and allows kids to be paired up with other kids their age with the same interests. With the use of McGill’s extensive facilities, kids can use the same pool, gyms, courts, and fields as the varsity teams at the university. This can be really exciting for the kids as they may have watched athletes during varsity games and are now on the fields themselves. What’s unique about this program is that it is led by varsity athletes and students (some who have even played for Team Canada!) of the physical education and Kinesiology program at McGill. The students that lead the program are enthusiastic about teaching young kids in their home base, and many are interested in teaching as a career. They have the skills to give campers an elevated experience, over just any other camp counselor. Kids don’t need to be athletic to sign up for McGill Sports Camp, as it is more about fun and being introduced to new sports. Kids can challenge themselves and realize what they like and they don’t like. The McGill Sports Camp is a unique opportunity for kids to learn sports under talented mentors.

    Director's Message

    Welcome to the McGill Sports Camp. We are eagerly looking forward to the 2023 season and our 40th year of operation. We strongly believe that the combination of our extensive programming along with the maturity of our staff will provide your child with an enriching camp experience.


    Staff and Counsellors

    Our talented and mature staff is second to none. We are fortunate to primarily recruit university-aged students, many of who are students from McGill's Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education. Students who are looking at careers in teaching use our camp as an opportunity to practice their teaching skills. We are also fortunate to have a number of staff who were once campers themselves.
