Good to know

  • Children are coached in two groups so every session is pitched at the right level: KS1 (our younger group, Reception to Year 2) and KS2 (our older group, Year 3 and up).
  • Each group plays three different sports every day, and at least one is always a camp favourite: Dodgeball, Football or Basketball (marked with a star below).
  • All sports equipment is provided, including for Nerf Battles (foam-dart games with all safety kit supplied). On Bike and Scooter Day (Wednesdays), children are welcome to bring their own bike or scooter. Helmets are a must: no helmet, no riding.
  • Surprise special games pop up through the summer too: Compass favourites like POW, Champ, Hunter and Crazy Golf, taught by the coaches on the day.

What to bring each day

  • Packed lunch, snacks and a filled water bottle
  • Trainers and comfy sports clothes
  • Sun cream and a cap for sunny days, plus a light waterproof
  • Wednesdays, if they like: their own bike or scooter, always with a helmet

Theme days, every week

  • Monday, Prize Hunt: clues hidden around camp all day, with prizes at the afternoon presentation
  • Tuesday, Nerf Battles: foam-dart target games and team battles, with all equipment and safety kit provided
  • Wednesday, Bike and Scooter Day: bring your own wheels and helmet for supervised riding at break times
  • Thursday, Gladiators: duels, obstacles and total-wipeout style challenges
  • Friday, RC Cars: remote-control car racing and time trials

Themes run alongside the sports timetable at arrival games, breaks and challenges, so they never replace a single minute of sport.
