*We are sad to announce that, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we cannot hold overnight sports’ camps at Providence this summer. We delayed our decision as long as possible in the hopes that public health guidelines would change. Unfortunately this year, there were too many barriers logistically – in training, in competition and in accommodations – to be able to open the camp to the public. This is the first time in 23 years that our Otterburne campus will not be filled with campers and coaches. While we are deeply disappointed, we fully support our government in their efforts to protect our communities. It is with anticipation and excitement that we plan to bring Providence’s Sports Camps back in Summer 2021!
Providence Sports Camps combine a fun week of basketball, soccer or volleyball training with devotions and chapels, bonfires, terrific meals, free time and everything else you’d expect from a summer Bible Camp! Designed for all skill levels, Providence Sports Camps provide athletes with 5-6 hours of court/pitch time per day in skill sessions and league play. Our skill sessions are led by high-level feature instructors and league play is coached by our own college athletes. Come improve your skills, grow in excellence and become the best teammate you can be this summer!

Junior Varsity Volleyball Camps are for those going into grades 9 and 10.

Registration takes place the Monday of the camp week from 10:00am - 11:00am in the Reimer Student Life Centre on campus. We required campers to be dropped off rather than driving themselves to ensure the safety of our campers. Please plan to arrive on campus and register during our registration time.
If the camp you wish to register for is full, you will need to sign up to be placed on a waiting list. We will place you on a waiting list in the order in which your form is received. If a spot becomes available, we will contact you and you will have 48 hours to accept or reject the open spot. You do not need to pay to secure your spot on our waiting list. At the time of accepting the open spot, you will have until the end of the next business day to pay for your registration fees. To sign up for our waiting list, please fill out our Waiting List Form.
*Sports camps have sadly been cancelled due to COVID-19. All campers will receive 100% full refund. Each refund will be processed manually, and must go back onto the credit card used to register. If the credit card is no longer in use, we will set up an ulterior form of refund, upon request. We have 314 campers registered, who will all be receiving refunds, which will take some time to process. We are committed to completing all of the refunds by the end of June. We will be completing the refunds in order of registration, beginning with the first registrations in February and ending with the last registrations in May. If you have any questions, please contact our Director of Athletics.
In the event that you must withdraw from Sports Camps, the following refund policy applies:
In the case of an emergency withdrawal, please contact our Sports Camp Director.
All campers will stay in the college dormitories on campus. Boys and girls are housed separately and each room has two beds, two desks, a large closet and a three-piece washroom. All of our dormitories are supervised by the camp coaches.
Each room houses two campers (a maximum of three is allowed upon request, however, the third camper will sleep on a floor mattress). If there are roommate changes, please contact us at sportscamps@prov.ca. A maximum of two roommate changes is allowed and changes will not be finalized until we have received approval from all parties involved. There are no guarantees, but we will do our best to accommodate any roommate requests. We reserve the right to place campers in rooms that best suit the accommodation needs of the camp.
*These items will be confiscated and may be returned at the end of the camp. Depending on the item, disciplinary measures will be taken.
On the Friday of each sports camp week we host a celebratory banquet for all our campers and parents! The banquet starts at 6:00pm and features a great meal provided by our Sodexo food services team followed by a short program where we introduce camp staff, hand out awards to campers and show a camp highlights video from the week. This is a great way for parents to see what their kids have been up to during the week. Once the banquet program is finished, a final team picture is taken and everyone is free to go home. The cost of the banquet is included for all campers and additional guests are $15 each.
The banquet is not mandatory and parents can pick up their child at 5:00pm if they choose not to attend.
