We expect our campers to have fun, but to behave themselves well.

PERSONAL PROPERTY
Campers are responsible for their own property and possessions, including any equipment (e.g., ball, uniform kit) given to them as their personal property in the camp. In The Net Sports Academy and Lawrence Academy are not responsible for the loss of campers’ personal property, and will not replace lost balls or lost uniforms.

The Camp schedule is designed for the benefit of our campers. Campers, unless excused, are required to attend all camp training sessions. Children will not be allowed to remain in their dorm rooms while scheduled event take place. In addition, campers will be expected to be on time for all events, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Safety and Security Plan

We are committed to the safety and well being of your children. Your children will be safe with us at all of our camps, and especially at our overnight camp. As parents, teachers, and members of various local youth soccer and futsal programs, those of us involved in In The Net have your child’s welfare as our highest priority. In order to alleviate any concerns that parents might have, we have listed below the measures that we have taken to ensure your child’s well-being. If you have any remaining questions and concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our Camp Director, Patrick Mulcahy at patrick@inthenetsportsacademy or 315-415-3834.

A SAFE LOCATION
We chose Lawrence Academy as the location for our camp in part because of its beautiful and safe campus. LA is a small community where everyone knows everyone else. Faculty, staff, and campus security are visible about the campus during the summer months. Removed from urban center, and largely dormant in the summer, there are very few students on campus during the summer.

CAMPUS SECURITY
Lawrence Academy is a safe campus in part because of the constant vigilance of its security staff. LA’s Department of Safety and Security employs full-time officers who patrol the campus 24 hours a day and respond to a variety of calls including all emergencies. The Department’s mission is to support the college in its mission by providing exceptional services that promote a safe and well ordered environment for the community. The Department aspires to carry out its mission in a compassionate manner guided by the values of respect, integrity, service, and excellence.

KIDSAFE CERTIFIED STAFF
All of the camp counselors, coaches, and trainers of In The Net have been carefully vetted by our organizations. They are not only good trainers, they are good persons. To ensure this, we require that all of our staff be KidSafe certified. KidSafe is a certification program through Granite State Soccer that performs a mandatory background check for all soccer and futsal personnel. In addition, all of our staff have worked with us for years, or come highly recommended by local soccer clubs and schools. All have had their backgrounds rigorously scrutinized, and have provided references.

OUR TEAM and BUDDY SYSTEM
Our Staff will know where your child is at each and every moment of every day. We have several mechanisms to ensure that your child is safe and sound. First, our Team System places your child in a group of 12 children under one coach (for ages 10 and under, that coach will have a high-school aged assistant). The main job of that coach is to know the whereabouts of each member of his team 24 hours per day. Head-counts will occur at every major juncture of the day (wake-up, breakfast, morning training, lunch, etc.). Campers will be strictly instructed never to leave their team without the express consent of their coach (even then, they will not go unattended). That coach has as his or her main job the safety and security of his/her 12 campers. Each parent will be given the cell-phone number of their child’s coach, so that if they have any concerns or questions throughout the week, they can reach their child or the child’s coach. Second, our Buddy System requires that your child always be accompanied by a peer from his/her group—for bathroom visits, traveling to and from meals, and in the dorm rooms for sleeping at night. No child will ever be alone! Third, our Director’s Oversight means that the Camp Director, Patrick Mulcahy, and owner of In The Net) will know the name of each and every child in the camp. Patrick will know the group in which your child is placed, and where each group can be found at each moment of the day. He will be available at any time should your child have an emergency and will be accessible by cell-phone should a parent need to reach him. Our Dormitory Security Lawrence Academy’s dorms are highly secure facilities. Girls and boys stay on separate floors and are not permitted on each other’s floors. All building entrance and exit doors are locked day and night. No one but campers and approved coaches and counselors will be permitted in the buildings. And absolutely no one (children included) will be allowed to enter or leave the buildings between “Lights Out” (10:00 p.m.) and “Rise and Shine” (7:15 a.m.). Coaches and counselors for each team will have a room on each floor. Campers will sleep two-to-a-room, and have the ability to lock their doors. A small team of counselors will do head-counts before Lights Out, and do rounds during the night to make sure children are resting.

MEDICAL and NURSING CARE
Our Overnight Camp will have a registered nurse on staff 24 hours a day in order to address any medical issues that arise. Campers are asked to note any allergies, health issues, food sensitivities, etc. upon registration. That information is collected by the nurse and camp staff, and is carefully noted by each team’s coach and chaperones. Any illnesses or health issue that arise will be immediately addressed by our nurse, and parents will be notified without delay. Should your child suffer a sports injury, it will be treated professionally by Lawrence Academy Trainers, one of whom will be available throughout the day for the Overnight Campers.

OUR PARENTAL INVITATION
While we request that you give your child the space to enjoy him or herself during their time away from home, we understand that you would like to check on your child and ensure his or her well-being. Therefore, we invite you to watch your child play during the evening scrimmage (6:30-8:00 p.m.) each day. If those times are inconvenient, and you would like to check in with your child at a different time, please contact Camp Director Patrick Mulcahy to make arrangements (it is important that we avoid too many distractions provided by visitors at all times during the day). If you have serious concerns or emergencies, you will be provided with the cell-phone numbers of your child’s camp coach, and of the Camp Director, Patrick Mulcahy.
