Description
6 Points Sports Academy is located on the 100-acre, $100 million state-of-the-art facility of American Hebrew Academy.
At 6 Points, Jewish athletes participate in a unique camping experience that offers top-level coaching and beloved traditions of Reform Jewish camping. In our kind and nurturing community, campers form friendships for life while feeding their passion for their chosen sport. They strive to improve their game, meet new friends, and explore their Jewish identity. This magical experience takes place on the finest camp facility in all of North America.
Campers participate in 4 hours of intensive skill development in their sport and 2 hours of recreational electives. Campers also participate in traditional camp activities such as color war, Shabbat services, and song sessions, while living among other athletes, learning sports and life skills from professional coaches and Jewish counselors.
6 Points offers a sports-filled, Jewish values-infused experience unlike any other!
