One of the questions we’re asked most often by parents is:

SHOULD MY ATHLETE COME FOR ONE OR 2 WEEKS?

While one week delivers an incredible experience, the average stay of our campers is 2 weeks. Here are few reasons why:

1. Deeper Skill Development & Real Athletic Growth

One week builds momentum. Two weeks builds transformation.
With extended time on the field, athletes move beyond surface-level reps and into meaningful technical improvement, tactical understanding, and competitive confidence. Our professional coaching staff can truly coach by identifying habits, reinforcing fundamentals, and helping athletes elevate their game in a focused, high-performance environment.

2. Stronger Confidence Through Challenge

Growth takes time.
Across two weeks, athletes push through physical fatigue, mental challenges, and competitive moments that stretch them - and they come out stronger because of it. The extra time allows them to experience setbacks, adjust, and improve, building resilience and belief that carries far beyond camp.

3. Deeper Friendships in a 100% Tech-Free Environment

The longer athletes are unplugged, the more connected they become.
Two weeks means stronger bonds, inside jokes, shared challenges, and real friendships built through training, meals, dorm-time, and team experiences. Without phones, distractions disappear and authentic connection takes over.

4. A More Complete Camp Experience

Academy Camps is intentionally balanced.
With two weeks, athletes don’t just sample the experience, they fully immerse in it. They train hard, recover well, explore new interests, and create memories that feel like a full summer story, not just a chapter.

5. The Power of Bridge Weekend

Recover. Reset. Go Again.
Between sessions, our Bridge Weekend gives athletes the chance to recover, reset, and reconnect. With slower mornings, expanded activities, and an exciting off-campus adventure, athletes recharge physically and mentall.

Two weeks isn’t just more time. It’s more growth, more confidence, more connection, and a fuller Academy Camps experience from start to finish.

And as a bonus - we handle all your athlete’s laundry during the bridge weekend too, so they truly have a “fresh” start of their 2nd week.
