Your Child’s Summer Starts Here
We are bringing our highly successful Youth Leadership Development Program to a middle school near you! This After School Enrichment Program for 6th-8th graders is a comprehensive class that engages students in a variety of dynamic and interactive activities designed to transform them into confident, capable, and well-rounded young leaders. We will actively coach students on key skills such as: how to lead, how to be coachable; how to handle pressure, and how to communicate effectively.
Is your 10-14 year old kind of over talent show and wacky hair day, but they would still love a week of camp? Is he or she an athlete with the drive to compete or are they maybe interested in high school sports? If so, this is the camp for them. Each day, campers will immerse themselves in a new sport, honing their technique in the morning before putting those skills into action in afternoon games within a week-long competitive tournament.
They will also focus on HOW to compete. Our staff of excellent coaches will mentor them in character development, growth mindset, sportsmanship, coachability, and leadership, within a multi-sport environment.
Competitive Soccer Camp is for players in grades 5-8 who are serious about their game and dedicated to increasing performance and success. They are ready to move to the next level, whether that means joining a more competitive team or playing in a more advanced league.
A little bit of everything: basketball, soccer, dodgeball, kickball, football, tennis, ultimate frisbee, capture the flag, and more!

Over the years, we’ve heard from parents that their daughters love spending their summers at our All Sports Camp, but their one wish is for more girls! Our response was to come up with a camp not only guaranteeing MORE girls, but ALL girls. In doing so, we created a summer experience that was devoted to female competitors of all skill, experience, and grade levels while being run entirely by women athletes and coaches.
Everybody’s favorite kid sport for every type of kid. All ages and experience levels are welcome in our Soccer Camp. Our well adept and involved coaches create an easy going environment designed to help kids get the most out of the game.
No school doesn’t have to mean no fun. Our No School Day camps offer kids (and their parents) an alternative to the couch or the tablet whenever PPS schools take a break.
School breaks are for fun, freedom, and friends, and your youngsters will enjoy all of this and more at our Winter & Spring Break sports camps. We try to pack a whole summer’s worth of excitement into these weeklong camps during the school year!
BaxterSports is every kids’ favorite camp. And BaxterSports campers’ favorite sport is dodgeball. Every Spring, Portland’s first and only competitive dodgeball league for kids, EPIC DODGEBALL LEAGUE (EDL) takes our most popular activity to dangerously extreme levels of awesome.
Probably the most fun your child will ever have at a sports camp. Sign them up and let your little ones be the judge!
