Summary
KidSport Adaptive Camps offer children ages 4-11 the opportunity to learn and play a variety of team sports, individual sports, team building games, fitness, and other physical education activities, in a non-competitive and fun sports environment. KidSport Adaptive is specifically designed to address the modification that may be needed by children with neurodevelopmental or physical differences. Children who have higher support needs may have a more engaged experience in KidSport Adaptive than KidSport Inclusive. Time is also allotted daily for supervised (or guided) free play and rest. Pool time (e.g., instructional swimming and aquatic recreation) will be available each week for campers who are able to safely participate.
