Campers will have the choice of participating in fully immersed weekly programs in various sports and activities led by professional level instructors who have reached the pinnacle of their field, or they can choose to maintain a broad based program in all activities while still receiving access to the instructors at their own pace. We want our all of our campers to elevate their athletic skills by learning new techniques and improving upon fundamental basics in their favorite sports and activities.

We also want our campers to enjoy and learn from experiences off of the ball field. Our goal is to have The Sports Academy at Brookwood Camps provide a well rounded experience that will help our campers grow athletically, socially, and emotionally. World Class Instructors will teach Brookwood campers in the following sports: - Soccer - Football - Basketball - Lacrosse - Baseball for boys - Softball for girls - Track and Field - Golf - Tennis - Cheerleading/Tumbling - Gymnastics - Swimming. In addition to the sports, we will also offer a sports broadcasting program for those campers interested in announcing and covering sports.

THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTORS ARE ALREADY COMMITTED FOR 2018: - Jay Fiedler--Former NFL Quarterback will run the football program and direct the Sports Academy - Scott Brunner—former NY Giants Quarterback - Sam Madison—former Miami Dolphins and NY Giant All-Pro cornerback - Leo Mazzone—former MLB Pitching Coach (his players earned 6 Cy Young Awards) - Steve Levy—ESPN anchor since 1993 will instruct in our sports broadcasting program - Tim Capstraw—former Division 1 Basketball Coach and current radio analyst for Brooklyn Nets - Danielle Gallagher—All-American in women’s lacrosse, competed in 4 World Cup Tournaments - Manchester United's Gary Lewis for soccer, Ron Claiborne of ABC's good morning America for our broadcast program.
