About this camp

Little Medical School's Sports Medicine School offers an engaging and interactive experience for elementary-aged campers interested in the medical field, specifically sports medicine. Campers step into the roles of athletic trainers and orthopedic surgeons, gaining hands-on experience in diagnosing and treating common sports injuries. The curriculum, developed by educators and board-certified physicians, focuses on practical skills and scientific understanding. Activities include learning about reflexes, how muscles and bones work together, identifying and caring for blisters, athlete's foot, strains, and sprains. Campers also explore different types of joints, learn about Tommy John surgery through practice, and study the anatomy and common injuries of the hands, even making models. The program emphasizes interactive tools and role-playing to make learning fun and impactful, culminating in a graduation ceremony where students receive a diploma and design their own sports medicine clinic.
