Registration for HUSTLE Summer Camp 2026 is Officially Open

Summer at HUSTLE: High-Energy, High-Value

Summer at HUSTLE Athletic Academy is built for kids who love to move, play, and stay engaged all day long. Our coaches create a structured yet fun environment that keeps campers active, social, and confident from morning to pickup. With a full calendar of activities and field trips Monday through Friday, parents get the peace of mind that their child is safe, supervised, and having a blast.

​Simple, Straightforward Pricing

We designed our pricing so parents always know exactly what to expect. New campers pay a one-time registration fee of $100 that is not annual—once you pay it, your child is set for future summers with us. Weekly tuition is a flat $195 per week for full-time camp, making budgeting predictable for the entire season. Families with more than one camper receive a 10% sibling discount on full-time weekly rates.

​Activity Package: All the Fun, No Surprises

To keep things simple, we bundle trips and special events into one summer-long activity package. The one-time $200 activity fee covers daily field trips, enrichment experiences, and special events for the entire summer, so there are no surprise add-on costs halfway through camp. Campers also receive two camp shirts, making “what do I wear on trip days?” an easy decision all season.

​What Campers Can Expect

Each week, campers enjoy a schedule packed with movement, games, and hands-on experiences. Our team focuses on keeping kids active, learning, and having fun while building friendships and confidence in a supportive environment. With trips and activities built right into the program, campers stay excited to come back day after day.

How to Register (Early Is Best)

Snow Day Fun at HUSTLE!

No school? No problem! Our HUSTLE crew took full advantage of the recent winter wonderland — snowball battles, snowmen, and plenty of laughter to go around. 😄

We love seeing our kids bring that same HUSTLE energy outside — teamwork, fun, and big smiles all day long! 💪❤️

Five Ways Before School Child Care Makes Life Easier for Parents

The HUSTLE before school program is designed to take stress off parents and set kids up for a great day. Here are 5 ways it makes mornings easier for busy families.

1. No more rushed drop-offs

Parents can drop off earlier, which spreads out the morning crunch and removes the pressure of beating the first bell. Kids are already safely checked in and settled before school starts.

2. Smooth transition from home to school

Morning care gives kids time to warm up socially and emotionally before class. They arrive at school calm, comfortable, and ready to focus instead of feeling rushed or overwhelmed.

3. Extra time for parents’ priorities

With children dropped off earlier, parents gain a pocket of time for commuting, work prep, or home tasks. That flexibility makes the entire morning feel more manageable and less chaotic.

4. Active start instead of screen time

Instead of starting the day sitting in front of a screen, kids move, play, and interact. An active morning helps with focus, mood, and energy once they get to school.

5. Reliable backup when things go wrong

Traffic, last-minute work calls, or a slow-moving morning are less stressful when before school care is already in place. Parents know their child is safe and supervised even if the schedule goes sideways.

Screen Time vs. Play Time: Why Active Kids Focus Better

After a long school day, many kids default to tablets or gaming to "unwind." But while screens offer a passive escape, they often leave children more overstimulated and less focused when it’s time for homework.

At HUSTLE Athletic Academy, we believe the best way to recharge the mind is to move the body. Here is how trading screen time for play time boosts academic success.

The "Miracle-Gro" for the Brain

Science shows that physical activity triggers the release of BDNF, a protein that acts like "Miracle-Gro" for brain cells. Unlike the mental fatigue caused by screens, exercise actually improves memory and sharpens focus.

3 Benefits of an Active After-School Routine:

• Regulated Energy: "Getting the wiggles out" isn't just a phrase—it's sensory regulation. Physical play burns off the excess energy that leads to fidgeting and "homework meltdowns."

• Executive Function: Sports require quick decision-making and following rules—the same cognitive skills needed for math and reading comprehension.

• Stress Relief: Exercise lowers cortisol. A child who has spent an hour playing is calmer and more resilient when facing a difficult school assignment.

The HUSTLE Advantage

Our After-School Program in Powhatan provides the intentional movement kids need to transition from the classroom to the home. By the time you pick them up, they’ve decompressed, socialized, and prepared their brains for a productive evening.

HUSTLE Media Day!

Today was absolutely AMAZING. Our kids totally rocked their first-ever Sports Media Day — and our incredible photographer, Gina, absolutely outdid herself.

From confidence poses to big smiles and silly moments, these kiddos were the BEST models we could’ve asked for. They had so much fun and truly owned the spotlight!

Huge thank-you to Gina for capturing the heart, energy, and HUSTLE spirit we see every single day. We cannot WAIT to share more of these photos!
