Our inclusive multi-sport camps provide a fun, exciting and safe way to spend your child's time.
Here at IWA-Sport we pride ourselves in running a camp focused on social inclusion, child development and building confidence. Each day of camp provides children with the opportunity to learn new skills, make new friends and have fun in a safe, inclusive, welcoming and friendly environment.
Our camps are fully accessible and provide both indoor and outdoor components (weather permitting). Activities are suitable for varying levels of ability and all participants get the opportunity to experience wheelchair sports! Playing wheelchair sports provides an opportunity to learn, understand and raise awareness of our wonderful sports in an interactive and fun way.
None of our amazing sports camps are currently available to book right now but please check back soon!
Our camps give children aged 4-12 an opportunity to keep active through a variety of activities i.e. wheelchair games, obstacle course, parachute games, GAA, athletics, archery, foam polo, rounders, seated volleyball and much more! Weather dependant, a visit to St. Anne’s Park might also be on the agenda! Each year we update our programme of activities and use feedback from previous years to ensure your child can participate in new, thrilling, and exciting activities as well as some of the old firm favourites.
We have an experienced and qualified team that are passionate about delivering a positive camp experience for all attendees. The camps are organised with appropriate child: instructor ratio with children fully supervised at all times. All staff are certified with IWA Training, Sport Ireland Safeguarding Training and receive additional training on up-to-date practises seasonally. Staff are selected for their sporting/coaching experience, enthusiasm and leadership qualities. Each year we have a high return of camp staff which adds to the continuity and stability of our camps. Just as children love to see familiar faces, we also love to see many familiar and excited faces return to our camps year on year.
A healthy lunch & water bottle. There will be 2 supervised lunch breaks. Other items: raincoat, suncream, change of clothes. Please ensure that all your child’s belongings are labeled. For tips on lunch visit this link >>

We look forward to meeting new campers and welcoming back familiar faces to our 2023 camps. For any further queries please contact the camp manager leah.mccabe@iwa.ie
“As a parent I want my children to have fun at summer camps and, if possible, to learn something. The great strength of the IWA camps is that they achieve both of these things. Children who attend the camps are challenged physically and socially but in an environment that prioritises their enjoyment. They come to understand that ability exists on a broad spectrum and have their perceptions of what it means to be competent and capable challenged across a wide range of activities. Above all, they are given a different lens through which to look at themselves and their friends, old and new. I can think of no better way for children to spend their time.” Joe O’Hara, Full Professor of Education at DCU Institute of Education. President, European Educational Research Association (EERA)
