🌱 They Might Just Discover Their Sport!
One of the best things about a multi-sports camp is that kids can try before families have to commit to club fees, equipment or an entire sporting season.
They might score their first basket, pick up a hockey stick for the first time, discover they're great at softball, meet a new friend — or find a sport they can't wait to play again.
Where possible, we connect interested families with local sporting organisations so children have somewhere to continue if they discover something they love.
No pressure. No experience needed. Just come and have a go.
🎟️ READY FOR FIVE GREAT DAYS?
Places are limited, so early registration is encouraged.
Give your child five days to try, play, explore and discover what they can do.

Why Our Holiday Sport Camps are Different?
👧 Grass Roots Sports
Our holiday sporting camps focus on providing children, aged 5-16, the chance to try a variety of sports from a beginners, grass-roots level. This is very different from other sporting camps that offer development programs for their members, emphasising the improvement in skills of already experienced players.
We offer our campers' the experience of trying new sports, often for the very first time. Kids have so much more fun learning with other beginners, who are similar in age and abilities, alleviating the pressure and intimidation of being the 'newbie', in a group of experienced players.
It’s about encouraging kids to have a go, to discover what they can do, and building the confidence to try something new.
👨👩👧 Happy Kids - Happy Families
Holiday Camps give kids the chance to stay active, make new friends and try something new while having fun during the school holidays.
Running from 8:45am–3:30pm, they’re also convenient for parents who are working, juggling other commitments, need an accessible holiday activity, or simply appreciate a quiet day knowing the kids are active, happy and well looked after.
💰 Unbelievably Affordable
Our Holiday Camps are designed to be one of the most (if not, the most) affordable school holiday options in the Northern Rivers. Grant funding allows us to reduce prices even further, but even at our standard registration fees, families receive great value — 4 or 5 full days of activities, morning tea and lunch, experienced and qualified coaches with current WWCCs, and all sporting equipment supplied.
Don't forget, we can now accept Active Kids Vouchers, to reduce registration costs even further for families.
Camps are generally held during the first week of each school holiday period, with Summer Camps running closer to the start of the new school year.
😊 Friends Together, Build Confidence and Resilience
When kids are grouped together in similar age and abilities, friendships form naturally, with even the shyest of children finding someone to laugh and play with.
Relationships built in this way further a child's social skills, self-confidence and kids discover the specialness within them.
Our camp focus
Our holiday camps are crafted to provide an enriching and enjoyable experience for all participants. We believe in the power of play to teach valuable life skills and foster a love for physical activity.
Fun and friendships
Mainly about having fun while trying new sports with other beginners, creating an environment where kids form friendships naturally.
Skill discovery
Discovering what type of sport suits each child, whether it's team, individual, or partnered activities, and developing new capabilities.
Inclusive for all
Our camps cater to beginners aged 5 to 16, with challenging programs for experienced players, ensuring everyone feels welcome and engaged.
Why choose our holiday camps?
Our holiday camps stand out by offering an unparalleled experience in the Northern Rivers region. We provide an affordable, multi-sport program that focuses on fun, discovery, and fundamental skill development for all children.
Affordable and accessible fun
Our holiday camp is the cheapest recreation and vocational program offered in the Northern Rivers region. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to explore sports and develop new skills without financial barriers.
Unique multi-sport experience
Unlike most camps that focus on improving skills in one sport, our camp offers access to several sports at the grassroots level, all in one convenient location. This allows children to try a variety of activities and discover their true sporting passion.
