Ice Hockey Camp:  The Hockey Camp provides outstanding hockey instruction and a well-rounded full-day program of sports activities.  The program emphasizes the values of sportsmanship and fair play.  Every player gets to participate in a daily game, and teams are formed towards the end of the session to compete for the coveted Dexter Cup.  Players are divided into groups according to age, size and ability, enabling coaches to support and challenge every participant appropriately.

Soccer Camp: In partnership with the local professional coaching company, "Be Ahead of the Game", soccer camp offers four sessions of soccer camp.  "Be Ahead of the Game" provides teh coaches and Dexter Southfield School provides the exceptional facilities while overseeing the camp.

Lacrosse: Dexter Southfield is partnering with 3d Lacrosse to offer an exceptional Lacrosse Camp.  We believe that 3d Lacrosse's level of instruction is unique and unlike anything most players have ever experienced.  Their ability to to develop players is unparelleled in the lacrosse training landscape today. 

Tennis Camp: Designed to fit a player's abilities and needs instead of requiring the camper to fit the program.  Depending on the mix of ages, skill levels, and tennis objectives of the children, the program is modified to enable each camper to grow as a tennis player and as an individual.  This is accomplished through a combination of instruction, training, games, and competitive activities designed to keep each camper fully engaged and excited about improving his or her tennis skills.
