For us here at Sidwell, summer isn’t just a time of relaxation but a season of growth, learning, and sports.
With a diverse offering from Baseball to Lacrosse, and even Co-Ed Wrestling, our sports camps are designed not only for skill development but a channel through which our core values –commitment to diversity, personal growth, and community–building are brought to life.
Our expert coaches, each with a unique story, drive these values home, ensuring every child is seen, respected, and embraced for who they are. Want to meet a few of them?
