Set Expectations

Before camp begins, talk to your child about what they can expect. Share the exciting aspects of camp—like meeting new friends, learning from experienced coaches, and participating in fun drills and matches. Ensure they understand that the focus will be on both learning and enjoyment, creating a positive mindset as they prepare for their new adventure.
