Summer Camps General Overview
The Youth Sport Camps are a twelve-week day camp program of sports activities for children between the ages of 5 and 13. The 2025 camp season runs from May 27 – August 8. Camps run from 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.
Registration
Registration for the Fort Collins Youth Sport Camps opens on January 3, 2025.
Camps Offered
One-week sessions are offered in baseball/softball, basketball, field sports, inline hockey, lacrosse, soccer, and volleyball.
In addition, we feature our FunLIFE (Learning to Improve Fitness and Eating) camp again this year, which combines sports and physical activity with healthy lessons and curriculum.
This summer, we also feature Music and Movement which combines aerobic dance, rhythms, and martial arts movement with music.
Continuing this year is our Sport Science camp! Ever wonder how a curve ball curves? How do your brain and muscles talk to each other? How do your muscles help you move? Why do you feel better after you exercise? Join us and explore these questions as we explore the science involved in sport and exercise (ages 9 and up).
As always, we will be featuring our Super Sport Camp, which is a traditional day camp program that is offered in two-week sessions. The Super Sports Camp includes a focus activity (basketball/volleyball, soccer, baseball/softball, team/field sports, and track and field), plus group activities, swim lessons, and field trips.
The Outdoor Adventure Camp is designed for our older campers to help them experience some of what Colorado has to offer in outdoor activities. Depending on the weather, our anticipated activities include bicycling, hiking, geo-caching, exploring, and other outdoor pursuits. Due to the off-campus activities, this camp is open only to those campers aged 9 and over.
Our Extreme Outdoor Adventure Camp is also for the older campers, ages 10 and up only. This camp includes an overnight trip to the CSU Mountain Campus, whitewater rafting, outdoor rock climbing, and mountain biking or paddle boarding. The kids will have an extremely good time!
Returning this year are Tennis, held at the CSU tennis complex, and Golf, held at the City Park Nine. Both of these camps are in the morning only from 8 – 10 a.m. Campers may continue to one of our full-day camps for the remainder of the camp day.
Please note: All camps are strategically designed to be both progressive and independent. This means that campers can sign up for one or several sessions of the same activity, and campers will progress through a series of groups as they advance in skill level. It is not necessary to sign up for Session 1 of a sport before you sign up for Session 2. They are numbered chronologically, not progressively.
General Camp Timelines
All camps (except Tennis and Golf) will be full-day sessions held from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. daily. Campers can arrive after 8:30 a.m. and must be picked up by 4:30 p.m. Tennis and Golf campers should arrive at 7:55 a.m. and depart by 10:10 a.m. All campers (except in Tennis and Golf) can utilize our Before- and After-Care program, which is available at both facilities (South College and Moby) from 7:30 – 9 a.m. and 4 – 5:30 p.m. The additional cost for daycare is $7 per visit per child.
Campers should bring a water bottle and sunscreen every day, and a sack lunch Monday–Thursday. Pizza will be provided for lunch on Fridays.
Wish Youth Sport Camps were year-round? Join us for our After School Program during the school year! This program focuses on keeping children physically active and includes a variety of activities. Check out the After School Program section to learn more!

Fees Before and After Camp Care
Our full-day camps are held from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. daily. Campers can arrive after 8:30 a.m. and must be picked up by 4:30 p.m. However, we offer a Before and After Care Program for those families that need their campers to spend a little extra time with us. All campers (except those only in Tennis and Golf) can use this program.
The additional cost for this care is $7.50 per visit per child. (i.e. if both Before and After Care are used in the same day, the cost is $15 for that day.) Exact payment can be made upon drop-off or pick-up via cash or check, or the charge will be added to your online account the following week for payment via credit card.
Before Care is from 7:30 – 8:30 a.m., at which time normal drop-off begins. Our staff will transition them to their normal camp.
After Care is from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. Campers who are not picked up by 4:30 p.m. will automatically be signed into After Care. If a child is not picked up by the end of After Care at 5:30 p.m., there will be an additional charge of $10 for every 15 minutes after 5:30 p.m.
Before and After Care are available at both of our full-day facilities (South College Field House and Moby).
This program is on a drop-in basis. No prior registration or notification is required.
Please note this is unstructured time for the campers under the supervision of our staff. While we have some smaller activities such as coloring pages, card games, etc., and campers are welcome to bring their own camp-appropriate activity. Items such as electronic devices and Pokémon cards are allowed during this time as long as content is appropriate, but must be put away during normal camp hours of 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
