Specialty sports camps are on the rise, writes veteran New York Times writer, David Sheff. On July 20, he filed the story - For 7th Grade Jocks, Is There Ever an Off-Season?

The article included an interview with MySummerCamps.com’s President, Evan Heltay:

Going to an athletic camp is “no longer simply a fun alternative,” said Evan Heltay, the president of MySummerCamps.com, a summer camp directory. “Instead, they are almost a requirement for serious players."

“No organization tracks the total number of camps for specific sports. But MySummerCamps.com lists 2,100 sport specialty ones nationwide, up 500 since 2003.”
