Sandy Sticks Field Hockey Camp offers an outstanding curriculum, designed to improve the skills of young players. Campers develop their skills in a supportive and inspirational atmosphere, while being challenged daily to do their best.
Campers are grouped by age and years of experience, and coached by some of the best area coaches, collegiate players, and current field hockey league officials. A low camper to coach ratio is one of the many positives at Sandy Sticks.

Meet the directors

Danielle, Lauren, and Tara McNally have taken over Sandy Sticks after Trish LeFever ran the camp for 20 years. We all played for Trish and/or for the Ocean City High School program. Sandy Sticks field hockey camp was the first field hockey camp attended by all 3 of us and we would not have grown into the players we are/were without Sandy Sticks or Trish LeFever. It is our goal to continue the Sandy Sticks tradition and help teach athletes to play and love the game.
