Hosting an NCSAA Camp or Clinic
We are presently seeking schools that would consider hosting an NCSAA-sponsored sports camp or coaching clinic. Before you consider whether you might be willing to commit to doing so, let us tell you a bit more.
The benefits of hosting an NCSAA sports camp or coaching clinic are:
Provision of excellent Christian athletic and coaching training in your area — Two of the greatest needs of Christian athletic programs today are the skill development of athletes and the acquisition and training of capable coaches. Hosting a camp or clinic is a way for you to do your part in meeting that need, encourage your own athletes and coaches to take advantage of the opportunity, and also serve other coaches and schools in your area. In addition, a Christian sports camp or coaching clinic is an opportunity for your school to have a witness to many athletes and coaches in your community and to teach those athletes and coaches about a distinctly Christian perspective on athletics.
Fundraising for your school’s athletic program — As much as half of the profit from the camp or clinic will be given to your school. Thus, hosting an NCSAA camp or clinic not only supports the work of the NCSAA, but also directly benefits your school.
NCSAA promotion and contributions to your camp or clinic — 1) NCSAA will promote your camp or clinic on its website, through direct mailings to Christian schools in your area, via our extensive e-mail contact list, and sometimes in Christian publications; we will also send you flyers which you can post in your school and throughout your local area. 2) NCSAA will also handle all registration for your camp or clinic — so that the bulk of “busy work” will be off of your shoulders. Once you decide to host a camp or clinic, we will put the printable registration forms online — and mail you a stack of them. All attendees will mail their forms and payments to us, and (at the end of the registration period for your event) we will mail your share of the profit to you. 3) NCSAA will provide some “freebies” for your attending athletes and coaches; this year we are planning to give T-shirts and balls (for sports camps) and coaches’ notebooks and/or polo shirts (for coaching clinics). 4) NCSAA might be able to provide some volunteer coaches for your camp or clinic, if you are interested. Sometimes we are able to obtain volunteers from your area (or from a distance) who are willing to donate time to an NCSAA event. We will pursue that possibility and let you know if we can help in that way. 5) NCSAA will assist, as you request help and advice, in the organization and planning of your event. We will particularly give you suggestions about the promotion of your camp or clinic in your local area, as well as helpful tips about details for the “day of” your event . Increased visibility locally (and beyond) for your school — This is a great way for your school to get some “free advertising” and for athletes and coaches (from your local area and beyond) to visit your campus and become acquainted with your program.
If you believe that you would like to host an NCSAA-sponsored sports camp or coaching clinic, please complete and submit the form below – or call us directly at 724-846-2764. We will then provide you with further details about hosting a camp or clinic. (You are not making any commitment by requesting this further information.) Thanks so much for your willingness to consider this service to schools and individuals in your area, the NCSAA, and Christian athletics.
