2022 CaSSSA High Performance Camp

2022 CaSSSA High Performance Camp

The CaSSSA High Performance Camp will be held at the Gold Coast Performance Centre from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 September. 

Led by professional athletes and industry-leading professionals, the High Performance Camp will engage our athletes in three days of invaluable workshops and training sessions, including sports psychology, nutrition, female athlete health and wellness, and recovery and injury prevention, as well as strength and conditioning and coaching explicit to participants’ chosen sports. 

Each school is invited to nominate two students who they believe exemplify excellence in their chosen sport/s for this camp.  As a guide, the selection criteria below have been created to assist schools in the selection of their attendees. 

The Sport Office is calling for nominations from students who are interested in attending this camp. The cost of the camp is covered by the Sport Department.
