National Aboriginal High Performance Training Camps (Various Sports)


The Program

The Aboriginal Sport Circle (ASC) has recently introduced its Annual National Aboriginal High Performance Training Camps with great excitement. Aspiring Aboriginal athletes and coaches from across Canada will now be selected to go to high performance camps for training and coach mentoring. Selected participants will be among other athletes and coaches for a week of personal development both on and off the court.

Our goal is to prepare already successful athletes for advanced levels of competition, and to have Aboriginal coaches acquire coaching certification while gaining experience with high performance athletes.


Our Principles


By partnering with other National and Regional Sport Bodies and Centres, the camp will offer a balanced curriculum derived from high level technical content, complemented by Aboriginal philosophies to sport. Athletes will be offered training on mental and physical preparation in a culturally, spiritually sensitive environment. Coaches will be mentoring with National/Provincial coaches to enhance or develop their coaching styles, and apply them holistically. Selection and participation in the camp will have equitable regional and gender representation.
