2023 Summer ID Camp - July 21-22 (Cancelled as of 7/1/2023)

Cost: $200   Age: Rising 9th-12th graders

*Online registration closes at noon on Monday, July 17th

The purpose of the ID Camp is two-fold.  The first is to provide rising freshmen to seniors the opportunity to participate in high-level training and experience the practice/playing environment at the college level.  The second is to identify players who are interested in playing field hockey at Messiah University.

This camp gives our coaching staff the opportunity to see prospective student-athletes play and train within our system and style of play while giving players time to work closely with the coaches on our staff.

COVID POLICY:
All campers are asked to not attend if they are exposed to COVID within 3-5 days prior to camp. If any campers begin to develop symptoms while at camp, we have the capability to administer a rapid antigen test, however parental consent must be obtained to administer a test.  A parent may also choose to come and pickup his/her camper if they choose to not test for COVID. 

We ask campers to practice healthy hand washing and cough hygiene practices.

*Policies are subject to change based on CDC and institutional recommendations.

Goalie Training
In addition to field player training we offer goalie training at our camp. They train together with our goalie coach and will be added to small sided games and drills when necessary. Goalies must bring their own goalie gear to the camp. You will be given the opportunity to designate your primary position during the online registration process.

Athletic Training
There will be a Certified Athletic Trainer present at our clinic. The Athletic Trainer will be available to meet with you prior to our session if you have any questions or pre-existing injuries to discuss.
