Sports Leaders

 

Welcome to the home of Sports Leaders, the latest exciting addition to the world of Camp Leaders. The Sports Leaders programs offer qualified coaches the opportunity to use their skills and knowledge to instruct sports on American summer camps.

Coaching on camp provides a fantastic new instructing experience and allows qualified coaches to develop their own abilities, whilst sharing their enthusiasm and enjoyment for sport with the campers.

High Profile Support!

And what's more exciting, we've gained the support of a number of Great Britain's top Olympic and world athletes. These athletes all recognise the benefits held for coaches across the world to take part in work on summer camp and share in the Camp Leaders' passion to help more people experience the excitement of a cultural exchange scheme. With our ambassadors ranging from two-time Olympic gold medallist, Shirley Robertson, to World No.3 Wake boarder, Dan Nott, there's a great variety of athletes showing their support. You can see all the athletes endorsing the program on their dedicated Sports Leaders page. Just click on the 'Sports Ambassadors' tab on the left hand side.

Applicants taking part in the Sports Leaders programs will receive a separate set of benefits, in addition to those received by members of the regular Camp Leaders program. Check out the individual sport listings below to find out what the requirements are to take part. You'll also find the list of benefits there for your sport and details on the specific application process.

What's the extra cost?

There isn't one! That's the great part of the Sports Leaders programs. We want to reward you with additional benefits for the time and effort you've put into gaining your sporting qualification(s) and show recognition for the increased ability and knowledge you bring as a qualified instructor. The only extra cost is if you choose to participate on one of our training programs.

Fantastic Training Opportunities! (If you're already qualified, don't worry!)

In conjunction with the launch of Sports Leaders, we're excited to also announce the opening of our new sport specific training programs. With swimming as the forerunner for Sports Leaders, we're offering two qualification courses for applicants to gain certification before they travel to the USA for the summer of a lifetime! More information on the available training can be found on the 'Swim Leaders Training Page'. Anyone who would like to sign up for the course should send an e-mail to sportsleaders@campleaders.com to receive the information pack on the desired course.
