Children are welcome for the whole summer, for a week or can book for the day. Really whatever suits you the best.

Each camp runs from 10am – 4pm.
Free childcare is available from 8:30am and until 5:30pm.

The card will have the camp managers mobile telephone number for you to call if you have any need to contact either your child or the manager during the hours of camp.

Every day we offer different activities with variety, choice and flexibility being the key ingredients to our success.

Supervised lunch takes place between 12.45 – 1.30 in the dining room.
The afternoon session is divided into 2 sessions (3 for the 5-6 year olds)
13.30 – 14.30 | Coaching Session |
During this session a different sport will be chosen each day for the children to be coached. Here the emphasis is more on learning and improving their technique, skills and tactics. It offers the children a fantastic opportunity to try new sports such as golf, squash and volleyball while being coached by qualified PE teachers.

What should my child bring to camp each day?
All children should bring a packed lunch and a drink. In warm weather, please include an ice pack in the lunch box as refrigeration facilities are not available.
A water bottle is desirable as we encourage the children to drink lots during the day.
Children should wear suitable clothing to participate actively. Trainers are essential and we would encourage parents to put their child's name in each piece of clothing in case it gets misplaced.
Please bring a swimming costume, towel and goggles every day.
We are not allowed to administer sun cream to your child without the parent's permission so please bring sun cream and a hat for protection. The staff will regularly remind the children to put sun cream on.
Does my child need to bring any equipment?
We provide all the equipment for every activity and there is no need for children to bring their own. Some children do bring their own tennis racket etc but Hotshots cannot be held responsible if it goes missing or is broken, sorry.
If children need to bring mobile phones or any other valuables with them to camp they should hand this in at the beginning of the day to their coach where it will be locked away.
What will happen if my child is unable to attend due to injury or illness before camp starts?
Hotshots will give you back your full payment.
Also if your child does not enjoy their first day and does not want to return the following day you will also receive a full money back guarantee.
