Camp Overtime Brings Campers’ Games to the Next Level

(Courtesy of Camp Overtime) Camp Overtime started as a dream: a hockey camp that was fun, intense, exciting and structured, within a positive and religious environment. A camp where the boys could see that it is possible to be very serious about their hockey and at the same time take their yiddishkeit seriously as well.

To create this environment, we hired a staff of amazing role models, who were yeshiva league hockey greats, phenomenal coaches and also are passionate about their Judaism. They led high-level clinics, coached their teams with enthusiasm and attention to each camper, and delivered engaging chinuch sessions which focused on improving midot both on and off the court.

Camp Overtime was divided into two divisions: the “single” division was for fifth through seventh grades and the “double” division was for eighth through 10th grades. The campers played nine league games, followed by playoffs and very exciting championships in both the outdoor and covered hockey courts. We provided clinics in which the campers acquired new skills and reinforced the ones they had. Our campers were treated to a special visit by coach Norm Blumenthal, head coach of the TABC JV hockey team, who led a clinic for the campers. The fun continued with a three-on-three hockey tournament, staff vs. camper dodge-ball games and a staff all-star game. The boys also went swimming, enjoyed the canteen and were able to take advantage of the beautiful facilities and grounds of Camp Mesorah.

We are excited that all Camp Overtime campers were able to improve their game and had a lot of fun while doing it. Check out the pictures at www.campovertime.com/media. We are looking forward to Camp Overtime 2019!
