The camp uniquely combines engaging physical activities with scientific and technological principles to explore the science behind sports.
Science of Sport Summer Camps offer an engaging and active learning experience where middle school students delve into the scientific principles behind various sports. Campers participate in hands-on activities that connect STEM concepts like force, motion, and gravity to human movement and athletic performance. Activities may include investigating the mechanics of different movements, exploring friction in soccer, understanding unbalanced forces in football, and analyzing the science of throwing, catching, kicking, rolling, jumping, and running. The curriculum aims to build critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper understanding of how science and technology contribute to athletic success. Students gain practical experience through experiments and challenges, fostering curiosity and a love for discovery in a supportive environment.
Each day, campers investigate the mechanics of a different movement, connecting STEM concepts to the movement of their own bodies through hands-on activities and experiments. Afternoons may include all-sports fun with games and team challenges.
This camp is ideal for middle school students who enjoy staying active and are curious about the science and technology behind sports and human performance.
