Stetson University will again host a variety of athletic summer camps for school-aged youth. Sports for the 2013 summer camps include soccer, basketball, tennis and volleyball. The summer camps are specifically designed to provide an NCAA Division-I experience with the university’s coaches, with instructions for improving the fundamentals of each sport. Camps will be held weekly from June to August on Stetson’s DeLand campus.

Resident campers will stay overnight in the residence halls, and meals will be provided by the university’s Dining Services. Student ambassadors, also known as summer Conference Assistants (CAs), will be on duty to assist campers during their stay.
