About:
This summer, Eastport-South Manor student-athletes gave back to their community in an incredible way — by volunteering their time and athletic skills to mentor the next generation through the district’s Youth Summer Camps.
Working with students ages 6 to 13, ESM athletes helped young campers develop skills across a variety of sports, including basketball, lacrosse, volleyball, football, flag football, track, tennis, cheer, and soccer. Through fun drills, team activities, and hands-on coaching, the high school athletes served as positive role models, inspiring younger students to stay active, build confidence, and learn the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship.
These student-centered camps offered high school athletes the chance to step into leadership roles while engaging younger participants in a fun, half-day athletic program. The camps also introduced elementary-level students to ESM’s athletic programs, helping to bridge the gap between the district’s elementary and secondary schools.
The Youth Summer Camps not only strengthened athletic fundamentals but also fostered lasting connections throughout the ESM community. A huge thank-you to all of the Eastport-South Manor coaches and athletes who continue to make a difference both on and off the field!
