Pemi is the best sports camp for boys who, as athletes, seek topnotch instruction with a focus on technical development and team tactics, plenty of playing time, and high-level inter-camp competition. Pemi athletes also have full access to our other program areas: Nature and Music, Art, & Drama and Hiking & Canoeing, with the opportunity to discover new interests and tap into new talents. This becomes especially important as boys grow older.

An Excellent Sports Program

Athletes return to Pemi year after year, knowing they’ll be in top physical condition for school, ready to resume their place on a team and/or be prepared to try out for a new sport. Because Pemi’s Sports Program is known for excellent coaching from beginner to advanced levels, coaches also stand ready to introduce you to sports you’ve never tried.

During free time, you’ll see pick-up basketball, batting practice, singles or doubles tennis, small-sided soccer games and more happening around you. Join in, or start something new. Throughout the afternoon and evening coaches are available to support both dedicated and aspiring athletes to work on their game and improve their strength and fitness. If your school or club has a fitness schedule/plan, our dedicated coaches will help you to meet your goals.

Setting the standard is Charlie Malcolm, Athletic Director and head of Pemi’s Sports Program. Charlie holds a Premier License from the National Soccer Coaches Association, and coaches both soccer and baseball at Northfield Mount Hermon School. The NMH soccer program is nationally recognized for excellence and has won a record six New England Class A Championships.

Most of the counselors who coach, instruct, and officiate are college athletes, and many of them have years of experience. All of the heads of individual sports have at the very least high school coaching experience, and several have coached on the college level. Each summer, Pemi brings in guest coaches to offer specialized instruction in their sport.
