Here you go: 47-4911672. It’s also printed on the bottom of all BaxterSports camp registration receipts.

It sure is! Our Kids Soccer Camps cater to athletes of all skill levels. Each coach is experienced and knowledgeable about the game and can bridge the gap between encouragement and skill-building. 

Your child’s physical and mental well being is our top priority. We value your trust, and we understand how difficult it is for parents to navigate what’s the best thing for our kids right now.  You can find our most current COVID guidelines here.

Labels are a camp parent’s best friend. If anything left behind has your child’s full name on it, we will make every possible effort to return said item to you. Additionally, we encourage campers to take responsibility for the care and keep of their belongings, and we will display lost and found items at our check in/out tent daily. However, please note that sports camp is not the place to bring items of monetary or sentimental value.

Stuff happens, we get that and we’re happy to help. If you need to make any changes to a camp reservation, call 458-207-6375 or email us at info@baxtersports.com and we’ll get you set.

As Portlanders, it just goes with the territory, we play when it’s wet outside. Unless there is a tremendous soaking and we risk damaging the fields, our camps occur rain or shine. When excessive heat is cause for concern, we will modify our daily schedule to keep kids cool: increasing shade and water time, limiting strenuous exercise to mornings, and in some cases ending camp early before the hottest portion of the day. Air quality events due to fire, pollutants or other natural phenomena, may also cause us to take mitigating actions including limiting programming hours or canceling camp. In the case of cancellations, we will do our best to provide opportunities to “make up” for multiple missed days through credits for future programming. Every family has their own threshold for difficult conditions, and we encourage parents to use their best judgment in regards to the needs of their own child.   

As we doggedly search for dedicated indoor space, our camps are all currently held in the great outdoors! Rain or shine, we have camp locations at a variety of parks throughout the Portland area. You can find them on the individual camp pages with driving directions or check out our locations page.

If we could legally guarantee something like that we would. But since we can’t, we’ll just say that our camps have been providing a fun, exciting, and encouraging environment for children for over a decade. As we’ve been voted Portland’s Best Summer Camp for eight years in a row, we’d like to think we’ve found the magical formula for putting on a great camp!

Absolutely. Our founder, Brian Baxter, is not only a former collegiate athlete but has been a practicing Sport Psychology counselor for over two decades. His vision is to provide an environment that is both enjoyable and challenging. The athletes at our camps are provided with tools they need to develop their skills, as well as themselves as a whole. 

We group campers by age range, so they are generally in small groups with kids their own age.  They will spend most of the day with their peers, and part of the day with the larger group, interacting with all ages. We can absolutely put kids in groups with a friend (or two or three). Simply make the request when you register or shoot us an email before camp begins.

Our All Sports Camps include softball, dodgeball, capture the flag, soccer, basketball, kickball, and more!
