Summer 2027 brings an all-in-one, world-class junior pickleball, sports, and gaming camp experience to Slate! We bring young players together to learn, team up, play, and compete through a wide range of fun, gamified activities. It’s designed to build athletic confidence and lifelong friendships no matter your child’s age or stage.
Our full program features pickleball skill-building, match play, physical movement games, arts & crafts, and multi-sport blocks including soccer, dodgeball, golf, and basketball. Plus, campers will enjoy board and video gaming, field trips to neighboring parks and local businesses, and more.

Live the story
To provide an ultra-fun, social, welcoming pickleball, sports, gaming, and more camp for all juniors of any age and stage.
To develop your child's skills and love for pickleball and athleticism, making them players and athletes for life.
Our camps are unified for Summer 2027! All campers start together in Pickleball Camp from 9 AM to 11:30 AM. Full-day and Sleep-Under campers then transition into the Pickleball, Sports, and More Camp from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM, followed by the remaining 6-hour block for our Sleep-Under campers.
Campers will develop their pickleball and athletic skills with our unmatched SLATE methodology. Based on the Long-Term Athlete Development model, we adapt the curriculum for whatever age and stage your child is in.
We vary up the camps with blocks of different sports, physical development games, team match plays, field trips, craft breaks, and more. Boredom isn’t a part of the game! And for food, we offer a delicious full kids menu for both lunch and dinner provided by The Pavilion.
Our coaches are first and foremost, well-trained teachers with proper knowledge of how to develop junior pickleball players, both their actual skills and their love for the game. And they are also all fantastic players themselves, so they know what it takes!
Skill progressions and competitive play are gamified to create an optimal learning environment for every camper. Whenever sensible, we divide players by age and skill level to ensure a properly challenging and rewarding experience for all.
Our goal is to develop their game faster and funner than anywhere else and make them players for life.
After lunch and free time, we transition into our variety-style camp schedule. When it comes to pickleball, there’s a stronger focus on live-ball play and match play. For other sports, campers get to enjoy soccer, ultimate frisbee, golf, and more.
We also venture off-court for field trips to local destinations like HobbyTown, Nickel City, Sky Zone, and Glenbrook Countryside Park. All venue admission costs are included in the camp fee!
Right after our Pickleball, Sports, and More camp wraps up, we jump straight into video gaming in a dedicated adjusted space in our upstairs lounge!
But gaming is just the beginning. We’ll also have a projector screen for movie nights, an electric campfire, awesome tabletop games, and even a talent show!
And of course, we’ll hit the courts again for racquet sports and more classic camp games. It’s the ultimate sleep-under camp for young pickleball athletes and gamers alike.
Our fantastic team of coaches and counselors can't wait to deliver an unforgettable summer experience.
Registration is limited with currently only three weeks offered, so get your child in now!
