Hanover Hospital’s Medical Fitness Center will once again offer a Speed and Agility Camp for student athletes. Designed to help novice and advanced athletes excel at any level, the 6-week camp will take place June 19 through August 4, 2012 from 9:30-11 a.m., every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. There will not be any sessions during the week of July 1-7. The program will take place at the Hanover Middle School Athletic Fields and at the Hanover Hospital Medical Fitness Center on Fame Avenue, Hanover.

Participants will be introduced to skills that will help them improve their strength, speed and agility, and upon completion of the program, they will possess the necessary tools to work out independently. Pre- and post-athletic testing including a Biomechanical Force Plate Assessment and NASM Movement screening will be provided, along with age-specific athletic performance training and a positive coaching experience. There will also be a focus on upper and lower extremity injury prevention. The camps are staffed by certified strength and conditioning specialists and certified athletic trainers.

Space is limited to a first come, first serve basis. Registration deadline is the first day of camp. For cost and registration information, please contact Jennifer Sherdel, Coordinator of Sports Medicine, at (717) 646-6817 or sherdelj@hanoverhospital.org.
