The ACTIVE options consist of traditional sports (soccer, basketball, hockey, flag football, baseball etc.) along with fun camp games such as capture the flag and dodgeball variations, for example. The CREATIVE options consist of more project-based activities ranging from arts and crafts, science, theatre, mystery scavenger hunts, talent shows, collaborative activities and MUCH more! Camp caters to all types of kids, all types of interests. It’s as if they are mini college students picking their electives each day and making their choices on how they would like to navigate their camp day! We work in water play daily, and ALL sorts of fun surprises!

We have created so many games over the years that are “camp-favorites” and our campers love. We purposefully develop our original curriculum with all of these options, creating a randomness to each week that keeps our campers super engaged! Campers have the opportunity to focus on what they love the most as well as explore new interests. Whether you sign up for one week or all summer long, each week is a new experience!

FAQs to help you plan your summer at Got Game Camp:

Do we offer Early Bird Discounts?  Absolutely! Our Super Early Bird discounts provide $40 off per week, per camper until 4/1 AND our Early Bird discounts offer $20 off per week, per camper until 5/1. These discounts are automatically applied at the time of registration. We also offer Multi-Week discounts for families registering for three or more weeks at a time!

What about siblings?  We’re happy to extend a 20% sibling discount, automatically applied on our website when registering!

Is there a capacity?  Yes, there is. To ensure the ultimate experience, we limit the number of campers to 125 per location, per week. Once we reach this number, we move to a waitlist for those weeks. Spots fill up quickly!

What if I don’t know my summer plans yet, or if my schedule changes?  Not a problem! This summer, we’re offering week-transfers at no fee until May 2nd. So, you can reserve your weeks early, lock in early bird rates, and finalize (or update) your plans later!

Why does Week 1 (June 13-21) extend over two weeks? Our first week of summer, June 13-21, includes 6 total days of camp. Our camp schedule typically follows the LAUSD school calendar, and the last day of school is Tuesday, 6/11. Camp begins on Thursday, 6/13. We will operate Thursday and Friday, then we’re off during the weekend, and return the following week. There is no camp on Wednesday, 6/19, due to the Juneteenth holiday. The cost of camp for this week is prorated for 6 total days (instead of 5). The cost is automatically calculated when registering online.

What is your refund/cancellation policy? We understand that plans change sometimes. Please know we have a no-refund policy. In the event of a cancellation, families receive a full credit toward any future program. Please notify us at least 5 days in advance and we’ll hold a full credit on file for your family, which can be used for any future Got Game week/program! Credits never expire and can be applied anytime!

Can I sign up daily or for partial weeks? Yes, we offer Single Day rates and the option to register for 2 or 3 days per week. If you need just 1 day, email us, and we are happy to assist! Please specify the day(s) in the notes section when registering, or our team will follow up for confirmation. 

Are there field trips? You know it! We brought back field trips last summer, and it was so great to be back! This summer, we are excited to share that campers ages 6+ are eligible to participate! Campers ages 4 and 5 are required to have a personal chaperone to attend field trips, or they may stay on campus for a camp day.

What happens if you choose not to attend the trip? For those who choose to stay on campus, we have great Funky Friday activities lined up! We always make Fridays extra special for our campers, whether they attend the field trip or not!

Can I add field trips to my schedule later on? Of course! You can add field trips to your schedule at any time before the cut-off, which is typically the end of the day on Tuesday each camp week!

How do you group campers? Depending on weekly enrollment, we can have up to four age divisions: Rookies (ages 4-5), Pros (ages 6-7), Upper Pros (ages 8-9), and Veterans (ages 10-12). We believe in flexibility, so if campers or parents feel a different age division is a better fit (to be with friends or any other reason), moving “up” or “down” is completely fine!

What is your coach to camper ratio? At Got Game, we pride ourselves on having a large and dedicated team. Our coach to camper ratio varies depending on selected activities and age group. Generally, it ranges from 6-8 campers per coach for our Rookies, 8-10 for our Pros, and typically no more than 10 for our Vets!

Can you tell us more about your staff? Our team is the heart of Got Game! Unlike many summer camps, we retain our staff year-round. We’re proud to consistently have familiar faces return each year. Our team is comprised of PE teachers, after school directors, enrichment leads and accredited staff. All team members are CPR and first aid certified, thoroughly background checked, and live-scanned. They undergo training and professional development throughout the year and leading up to summer, ensuring camp is memorable and a unique experience for all campers!

Do you offer food/lunch? While snacks and lunches are not included in registration, we are excited to announce plans for a snack stand and optional lunch offerings this summer that parents may purchase! Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to the start of camp!

Do you have to commit to a certain number of weeks? Not at all! Some families join us for a few random weeks throughout the summer, others for the entire summer, and some just for a week here and there. Options are very flexible, and each week starts a brand new camp experience for each group! You can always register as you go along. However, please note we cannot guarantee availability, and early bird discounts expire on 4/1 and 5/1, respectively.

Can I request my child be with their friends? Absolutely! We love accommodating friend requests. After signing up, simply email us the names of your child(ren)’s friend(s), and we’ll ensure they’re grouped together!

Do you offer a CIT program? Yes, we have a Counselor in Training program for campers ages 13 and older. Please email us to learn more about our CIT program and the special rates we offer. It’s a great opportunity for older campers to develop leadership skills in a fun and supportive environment!

What should campers expect at Got Game? At Got Game, campers can look forward to a wide range of innovative and diverse daily activities. Get ready for some good-old-fashioned fun! Campers participate in four “rotations” daily, choosing from Sports, Original Games, Active Fun, Projects and Collaborative/Creative Team events/challenges. It’s like picking your own electives each day! This allows campers to focus on their interests, explore new activities, and play with their like-minded friends! Water play is a daily option, and we always have tons of weekly surprises, themes, and special happenings! We are so excited, and preparing for the BEST summer at Got Game Camp EVER!
