We pride ourselves on the principles of healthy competition.  Poor sportsmanship is not tolerated at Awosting.
 

Field Sports - Basketball, Baseball, Lacrosse, Volleyball, Soccer
You can always join a game at Awosting! We have a baseball diamond, sand volleyball court, football/soccer field, and several basketball courts.  Our counselors don’t just watch, they play and coach with the campers. Volleyball tournaments against the girls of Camp Chinqueka are also scheduled each summer.

Tennis
Future U.S. Open champions can be seen daily on Awosting's tennis courts.  Campers receive instruction and can participate in tennis tournaments, camp-wide tennis ladders, and coed matches with the girls from Camp Chinqueka. Additionally, campers may sign up in the afternoon elective periods to practice their skills and receive additional instruction.
Golf
Perfect your short game, hit a bucket at the driving range, and challenge a counselor at Stony Brook golf course. Campers are taught basic skills in the morning instruction period and given the opportunity to show off their skills in the afternoons. 
Fencing
Are you ready for a duel? Fencing instruction and tournaments are held between the two camps. Even campers without any prior knowledge of fencing can become quite skilled in the sport with just a few lessons. 
Martial Arts
Whether it be karate, tae kwon do, or judo, instruction is offered for those campers with interest. Light contact competitions are also held between those campers with the proper training.   
Mountain Biking
Mountain biking has quickly become one of the most popular activities at camp. Trek through the wooded trails behind the cabin areas if you are a beginner - or make your own course in the more advanced biking sessions. Cannondale and Trek bikes are provided, but you are welcome to bring your own cycle (storage will be provided). Come bike the forests of the Litchfield hills - there are over 1,000+ acres just waiting for you!
Gymnastics
The gymnastics program offers campers an opportunity to fine-tune their skills on the parallel bars, mat, mini-tramp, and the pommel horse.  This is an excellent activity to fine-tune motor skills, improve balance, and build muscle.
