Oval Summer Sport Camps will

and determination and improve 

performance in a fun and exciting 

environment. 

The Richmond Olympic Oval is a breathtaking sport, fitness and wellness facility that 

offers an inspiring environment for all ages and skill levels to progress towards their own 

personal podiums. 

Olympic Fact! 

Prior to 2010, no Canadian Olympic athlete had ever won a gold medal on 

Canadian soil. In 2010, not only did Canada win a number of Olympic medals, 

but Canada also broke the record for the most gold medals ever in the Olympic 

Winter Games, two of which were won at the Oval! 

Motivating and engaging our next generation of sporting heroes through sport and 

fitness programs is only a portion of what the Oval has to offer. In the venue that saw five 

Canadian medals, you can come in and experience our Community Legacy Programs: public 

memberships, drop-in sports and fitness classes, personal and team training, sport leagues, 

spectator events and more. Plus our highly motivated and professional staff ensure that 

you will have a gold medal experience each time you visit the Oval! 

“Richmond today stands as a rarity in the Olympic world: a community that used the Games 

more effectively than the Games used it.” 

The premiere venue of the Vancouver 2010 Games is open for you! 

We invite you to experience the legacy today.

Oval Sport Camps Summer 2011 

Oval Sport Camps encourage youth to thrive, learn and develop sport skills, while 

promoting teamwork and fun. We are committed to instilling the importance of staying 

active, developing self-confidence, improving technique and teaching new skills. Oval Sport 

Camps will challenge and inspire. It is our goal to ensure every young athlete can achieve 

his or her own excellence in sport. 

Our programs are based on Sport Canada’s Long Term Athlete Development and provide 

opportunities for participants ages six to 18. 

ACTIVATE 

Introducing fundamental movements through play. 

ACTIVATE camps incorporate age-appropriate activities and environments to develop 

the physical, mental and emotional components of each young athlete. Lessons will 

instill the importance of daily play and physical activity, teaching the ABCs (agility, 

balance, coordination and speed) and RJT (running, jumping and throwing). 

GENERATE 

Mastering physical literacy for lifelong achievement in sport. 

Oval GENERATE camps are designed to foster advanced development in a fun environment 

which encourages character building and self esteem. The main objective is to 

create pathways for both recreational participants and young athletes who wish to pursue 

excellence. Improved muscle coordination and fine motor control are essential components 

of this developmental stage. An introduction to proper strength and flexibility development 

is an imperative component to Oval GENERATE programming. 

MOTIVATE 

Providing opportunities for everyone to achieve their goals. 

MOTIVATE camps are designed for individuals who enjoy participating in activity, but shy 

away from highly competitive environments. Oval MOTIVATE programs put more emphasis 

on participation and fun, enabling participants to develop skills at their own rate. 

ACCELERATE 

Supporting the quest for higher performance. 

Oval ACCELERATE camps are designed to challenge all aspects of the young athlete 

by introducing them to an elite work ethic, the process of becoming a high performer 

and providing the technical instruction and support to continue that process. 

DOMINATE 

Train to expand your domain over motion and emotion. 

DOMINATE camps are designed to optimize sport and fitness preparation, position specific 

skills and the mental readiness to out-skill, out-hustle and out-perform the competition. 

DOMINATE programs seek to engage the athlete’s physical, technical, tactical, mental and 

lifestyle capacities to maximize performance.
