PPA is thrilled to announce the launch of our 2024 Summer Camp Programs. Rated as the best sports camps in the DMV, PPA will offer soccer and basketball camps throughout the summer in both day and evening camp format, designed for players passionate about sports.
Last year, we saw many camp weeks fill to capacity for before the start of summer. Therefore, we encourage families interested in participating to register early to secure their spot.
About PPAs Summer Camps:
What sets it apart? The coaching. Managed by our full time coaching staff, each week of camp is designed to foster competition, skill development, and of course, tons of fun. If your child loves sports, PPA's Summer Camp is the place to be.
Partnered with the Pro's:
PPA summer camp programs work with the likes of DC United, the Washington Spirit, the Washington Wizards, Georgetown University, American University to give our players once in a lifetime experiences including meeting players at camp, getting specialty merch, and accessing tickets for games with special experiences including locker room tours and halftime play on the fields/courts.
NEW Specialty Weeks:
This summer were launching themes for each week of camp to give PPA campers an even better sports experience. For example, we've got an Olympic theme and an NCAA Madness theme on deck, and some weeks with trips to the Pool.
Convenient Cafeteria Lunch and Aftercare Options
At our Day Camps at GDS, we offer a nutritious, athlete-focused cafeteria lunch option, freeing parents from the daily task of meal prep. Additionally, we provide a daily aftercare option from 3:00 to 5:30 pm for parents needing flexible scheduling.
Summer Programming = Day Camps & Evening Camps
Day Camps (Ages 6 - 13): Open to players of all levels, a mix of technical training, team competitions, water fun, and awards. Each week provides a different theme, but the fundamental structure is consistent; players are organized into teams, guided by both professional PPA coaches and PPA player alumni CITs, to participate in camp activities, sport training, games, and competitions.
Evening Camps (Ages 7 - 18): Focused on advanced competition, these camps run from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Players are grouped by age and skill for targeted skill development, followed by team competitions and match play.
