Sport camps and excursions

Looking to take your class excursions or school camps to the next level? La Trobe Sport can offer your students a valuable insight into the way of life for elite athletes by training in the facilities they do.

We have tailored our packages with a hands-on approach to ensure students walk away with more knowledge of themselves; be it in their current year or giving them tips and tools that they can take away well beyond their school years.

Enhance the training experience of your sports academy and test their athletic performance in our word-class Sports Park Stadium. Our services provide your students with measures in several performance-based tests for both individual and team-based sports. Take your teachings from the classroom to our Sports Park Stadium for the ultimate sport science experience.
