Without a URJ sports camp, young athletes had to make the tough decision to forgo the fun of a Jewish Camp experience to receive intensive sports training. In the summer of 2012, young athletes will experience the joy of URJ Camping and learn skills in their chosen sports, all while living Jewishly at 6 Points Sports Academy. Located in beautiful Greensboro, NC, 6 Points Sports Academy will be housed on the 100 acre, state-of-the-art athletic and camp facilities of the American Hebrew Academy. 6 Points Sports Academy welcomes boys and girls entering grades 5 through 11.
