Why Skyhawks   
 


Since 1979, Skyhawks Sports has led Safe, Fun and Skill-focused sports camps and programs for youth between the ages of 3-15. We offer 11 different sports--and countless ways for your child to grow. The camps range from soccer to baseball to our popular multi-sport camp where kids sample three different sports (Soccer, Basketball, and Baseball) in one camp.


Our camps and programs are offered locally in (24) states and Canada. The format includes traditional week-long summer day camps and year-round after-school programs that range from 45 minutes to 6 hours in duration, per day. Our progression of camps and programs, led by our expert staff, are geared toward youth looking for a sport introduction or those who want to refine and master their sport-specific skills.

“A wonderful program! The coaches are very pleasant and knowledgeable. It’s a good time for the kids, as with all the Skyhawks Sports programs my son has participated in. I would highly recommend your programs! ”  - Joyce (Westwood, MA)

We go the extra mile to focus on safety, and we have a long-standing proven safety track record and processes to prove it. For example, all Skyhawks Sports camps start and end with our unique safety process called “Gate System and Parking Lot Duty.” This process is where coaches come and greet both parents and campers in the parking lot when parents pull up to drop off their children. Our staff guide the kids onto the field/court and out of harm’s way by funneling them into our gate system. Eye contact is maintained from each one of our staff members until the kids make it onto the field/court where they are grouped by age. This efficient process ensures safety. Additionally, it develops a level of trust between parent, coach, and child that ultimately leads to a fun and skill-focused camp for youth.

“As a home schooling parent, I am extremely guarded when it comes to my children’s safety and well being. After meeting with Beth, I was very comfortable leaving them in the six hour camp. This is the first time we have ever left them with anyone outside of family for so many hours. Beth made us feel very comfortable. One of our safety concerns was whether or not the children would be permitted to use the restrooms by themselves. Beth assured us that they would be escorted by a staff member which eased our apprehension about leaving them. We were also extremely pleased with her basketball program. She was extremely knowledgeable about the sport. My children learned more about basketball and have had their skills greatly improved. I loved the intensity level. The director is excellent. I have signed my children up for another session because I liked her and how they are learning.” - Yolanda (Hayward, CA)



Fun at Skyhawks Sports means lots of smiles and gaining a sense of accomplishment while being active and socially engaged with other youth. We set the scene for fun at Skyhawks Sports by choosing the best location for the camp. Ingredients for a fun Skyhawks Sports camp or program include:
  • Staff that maximize the “fun factor” for every camper on the field/court
  • A good match between child and camp
  • Information for parents about what to bring, when the camp starts, etc.
  • A focus on the safety and well being of our campers at all times
  • A choice of two types of camps: those based on skill or our NEW recreation-focused camps
  • Our unique on-field progression
“Allyson had an amazing week at Skyhawks! This was her first time at a camp of any kind. I stayed around for the first day just to make sure she was ok, and when I dropped her off the second morning, she said, ‘It's ok Mom - you can go ahead and leave!’ That says how comfortable she felt with the staff - she was definitely sad at the end of the week to see camp come to an end. My hat’s off to your program!”
- Kim (Everett, WA)



Since the inception of Skyhawks Sports, our purpose has been to teach life skills through sports. Skill development is the driving force behind what we do. Over the last 30 years, we’ve perfected our progression throughout each day and week of camp to maximize skill development. Our progression is outlined below:
  • Warm-up games and drills that focus on stretching
  • A new “skill of the day” each day of camp
  • Games that reinforce skills learned
  • Periodic breaks throughout the day to ensure safety,keep youth fresh, and encourage group bonding and friendship development
  • End-of-day review of skills learned and games played
  • A tournament at the end of each camp to showcase skills learned


Regardless of where your child goes with sports, your ultimate goal is to have him or her be a happy, functional, contributing individual. That’s why we take our responsibility with your child so seriously. We definitely want your child to have a good time and improve in his or her sport of choice. Even more, we want your child to succeed in life. That’s why:
  • Our staff is selected carefully and with an eye on character.
  • Good sportsmanship is emphasized repeatedly.
  • Maintaining a positive attitude is a primary focus.
  • Life skills such as choosing how to think about things, treating others well, and being persistent are highlighted.
  • Behavior on the field is related to behavior in other areas of life.
  • We go the extra mile to leave your child feeling like a winner, on and off the field.
““This was a great experience for my son! The friendships and good sportsmanship that I saw develop, not just with my son but with all the kids, was awesome. We will do this again for sure.”  - Linda (Colorado Springs, CO)
