North Shore sports camps and school holiday clinics Sydney.

Our school holiday sports camps and cricket clinics are a great opportunity to boys and girls to have fun, develop new skills and develop awareness for a range of sports, including cricket.

These small group sports holiday clinics encourage children to challenge themselves and make new friends in a safe and inclusive environment.

Our cricket and sports camps are suitable for both boys and girls aged 5 to 16 years, separated by age group and skill set. It can be a great opportunity for children to challenge themselves against more experienced players, and visa versa.

Parents can relax in the knowledge their children are being supervised by highly experienced teachers and learning the correct sports techniques by accredited sports coaches.
