Challenger Sports International Soccer Camp
Grades K-8
July 17-21 | Full Day (Ages 8-14) or Mornings 9-12 (Ages 6-14)
We are partnering with Challenger Sports again this year to bring you top-level coaches and an amazing soccer curriculum. The early mastery of core technical skills is one of the most important elements in the development of youth soccer players. The more time the players spend in contact with the ball as they learn and develop core skills, the quicker they will master them and the better they will be at executing them in their games.
Challenger Sports has amazing coaches (with awesome accents!) who run innovative practices that will achieve these goals, all with a unique cultural twist. It all combines for a one-of-a-kind camp experience! In addition to the FA camp t-shirt, all participants will receive a free soccer ball and a challenger camp t-shirt.
Girls on the Run
Grades 3-5
June 26-30 | Mornings 9-12
Camp GOTR provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for youth to develop self-confidence and learn life skills in a cheerful, energetic and collaborative environment. In this week-long, half-day camp, rising third, fourth and fifth graders will enjoy building friendships and gaining new skills through interactive games, physical activities, and creative crafts and storytelling. We welcome youth of all abilities and embrace any and all girl-identifying youth. The curriculum and programming is adaptable and our coaches are well trained to meet the needs of all participants. All campers receive coaching from trained volunteers, a Girls on the Run t-shirt and water bottle, and an official Camp GOTR bracelet. There is a 15 participant minimum. If your child is looking for a fun-filled week in an active and inclusive environment, then look no further than Camp GOTR at Friends Academy!
Fencing Camp

Rhode Island Fencing Academy and Club (RIFAC) is bringing an exciting week of fencing to Friends Academy! Using a wide range of bouting and fencing-specific games and drills, campers will learn the basics of this dynamic sport and develop coordination, concentration, self-esteem, resilience, and integrity. By conquering the physical and mental challenges of fencing, campers build both confidence and technical proficiency.
All equipment provided; campers must wear sneakers and long pants Monday-Thursday. On Friday, campers will join Friday Fun day activities and will not need fencing attire.
