What are good camps for a 13-year-old?

Are there youth camps (e.g. sport camps) in your country and how does this market look?

  • I am conducting a research for my startup. I want to ask you about camp/excursion market. Do you know how does it look in your countries? From the atendee/organizer/parent point of view. I want to know if there are youth camps ( e.g. sport camps, ski/snowboard camps, language camps, surfing camps etc.) in your country and how does this market looks. I mean - if this kind of leisure is common, if young people really attend it, if there are many camp organizers, how big they are? For example in PL there are a lot of small or medium organizers who organize about 10-30 events per year. This kind of leisure is quite common within youths in Poland. I want to know how does it look here and in your countries. If you have any ideas or knowledge about it on your market/in your country I would be very happy to hear your answer! Thank you!

Huge industry in the US, for sports (all the college teams will have youth programs), special interests (science camps), craft camps, music camps, you name it, there's a camp for it.  Then there are the programs sponsored loosely by school districts, call "track out" programs, to provide organized activity for children on a "year-round" school calendar, so they can stay busy while their parents are at work. There are disease camps for sick kids. I do not have children, so I don't have any more direct knowledge of this market.  Searching on the term "american association of youth camps" yield 5 million results.  I would expect to find 50 state associations of youth camps, as additional places to search. I'm getting 800 million results on "australian youth camps," some of which look pretty legitimate.  Maybe they are all American youth traveling to Australia for adventure. Good luck.

There are numerous camps for all sorts of sports in the United States.  My daughter attends Lacrosse camps every summer.   They often take place on college campuses.  I wish they had sports camps For Adults.

In my understanding there are no Youth Camps at all in Australia and nor has there ever been.

Ireland has very long school summer holidays, so sports camps, as well as other camps like drama and language camps are very popular. Some of the different options. Community based, inexpensive sports camps, non-residential. The kids get dropped off to local sports grounds and go home at night. Because the camps are supported by sponsers and volunteers from local sports clubs, they are very inexpensive, around fifty to seventy euro for the week. Which is far cheaper than childcare would cost for the same period of time. http://www.kelloggsculcamps.gaa.ie/ http://www.summersoccerschools.ie/ http://www.athleticsireland.ie/news/2015-forest-feast-athletics-summer-camps/ Commercial sports camps. These tend to be either multi-activity or else specialist sports camps for the more expensive and fashionable sports such as sailing, surfing and horse riding. They can be both non-residential or residential. They vary widely in price. http://lahinchsurfschool.com/summersurfcamps/ https://www.oysterhaven.com/activity-centre-cork/Summer-Camps/Multi%3Cdash%3EActivity-Camps http://www.delphiadventureresort.com/adventure/summer-camps.207.html

In Nepal, there has not been tradition of much of youth camp but recently we have launched http://camp.youthlegend.com in Nepal. We believe that young people not just want to have fun but are in the process of self discovery too. Therefore, we have created the content in such way to help them find their authentic voice and realize their awesomeness having fun in the process. We also make sure to have good dialogues and connections between participants so that they can foster cross cultural dialogue and understanding. Hope this could be of some help to you.
