By Ottawa Sports Pages, For Dome Louis-Riel
Does your young athlete have trouble choosing just one sport? They can have it all at the Dome Louis-Riel’s Multi-Sport Summer Camp!
Our Multi-Sport Summer Camp is back for 7 weeks! From soccer to basketball and let’s not forget swimming and track-and-field. Our camp offers a dynamic mix of activities for children of all ability levels. Whether your child is a beginner or an aspiring star, they’ll gain confidence, make friends and create lasting memories!
Back for 1 week: our Multi-Adventure Camps! With fun excursions and exciting sports activities, campers will experience the best of both worlds. A museum visit or a day at the beach or the trampoline park are the kind of off-site trips they could make, and they’ll still work on developing their athletic skills too in a number of other sports.
The camps align with Sport Canada’s Long-Term Athlete Development philosophies, which encourage young athletes to participate in a wide variety of sports to build their motor skills – all offered in a fun, safe and entertaining environment.
“They get to try a lot of sports – it’s not always the same one,” underlines Dome manager Sophie Anderson, whose camp staff includes many talented and knowledgeable graduates/upper-year students from Louis-Riel high school’s renowned Sports-Study program. All are bilingual.
“If the kids speak to us in English, we’ll answer in English, and if they speak French, we’ll answer in French,” adds Anderson. “So it’s a great environment for kids to be exposed to both languages during the summer, and parents certainly also enjoy that our fees are very competitive.”
The Multi-Adventure Camp weeks offer a special experience for campers.
“Our school has our own busses for the Sports-Study program, so that gives us the chance to offer some pretty unique outings that you won’t find at other camps,” Anderson indicates.
There will also be an extra buzz for the camp’s popular Mini-Olympics competitions given that the 2024 Summer Games will be happening in Paris.
“Of course, everyone gets pumped up for the Olympics,” Anderson adds, “so there’s really nowhere better to ignite kids’ spirit for sport than right here.”
