MEDICAL
A member of our certified
athletics training staff will be available at check-in.
We no longer require a full physical to attend
Champ Camp. We do require, however, a parent or legal guardian to acknowledge
the prompt for our Waiver & Release within the on-line registration process. This
'signature' also represents acceptance of responsibility that the participant
is in good physical condition to be a competitor. All participants are required
to have this 'signature' in order to be eligible to play.
That is up to you and the
team coach. For overnight campers, we need to charge the standard fee.
Please e-mail your
question to laxcamps@yahoo.com.
We will alert the cafeteria and inform you of any special procedures.
We hire a certified sports medicine staff. They are on site at every game. Injuries
are evaluated by the on-site staff and their emergency protocol is followed. Parents
are contacted when advanced treatment is required (transportation to hospital
or follow-up treatment at home).

RECRUITING
We do not know for sure, but most
colleges are represented. A partial listing of traditional attendees is available
on the website or their brochure.
In most cases, yes.
Some schools send assistant coaches.
Champ Camp provides each college coach in attendance
a roster booklet. These rosters include jersey number, name, position, high school,
and year completed in school. The roster information is confirmed by the team
coaches.
You cannot. We rotate teams, times and game locations
to afford everyone the best opportunity for exposure to the college coaches in
attendance. Our goal is to provide a high level of competition and a forum for
college coaches to view players and games. Champ Camp is powerless to determine
what coaches watch which games and players.
We encourage all team coaches to be fair and equitable
with playing time, however, we provide them the autonomy to coach their respective
teams however they deem fit. Champ Camp is a very competitive environment and
this is a question more appropriately asked of your team coach before you choose
to attend.
No formal environment is set up for contact. Contact
with specific coaches should be initiated by the participant. All contact is subject
to NCAA regulations.
