"I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the incredible track and field camp I was able to attend. From the moment I arrived at camp, I was welcomed with warmth and enthusiasm by the entire staff. The core values I gained from observing different techniques along with speakers provided valuable insights for me to strive for excellence on and off of the track. All of the coaches were willing to give me personalized drills to help correct parts of my jump, and I will be continuing to implement the warm-ups and drills that I learned into my workouts here. The well-planned training sessions, state-of-the-art facilities, and knowledgeable coaches created the perfect platform for me to develop and improve my skills as a pole vaulter. Hearing from professionals that have an immense passion for the sport motivated me to want to work harder and perfect my jump. The comprehensive program not only focused on the technical aspect of the sport, but also the importance of failure, sportsmanship, and personal growth. Once again, I want to express my deepest appreciation for creating a track and field camp that exceeded all of my expectations and allowed me to learn about the culture at Duke. I look forward to coming back next year and seeing how much I improve throughout my season." - Camper

"Overall, the camp was extremely useful, fun and insightful. I enjoyed meeting campers and staying overnight at the Duke campus. I look forward to attending in the future." - Camper

"This camp is an incredible opportunity to experience a taste of college life while simultaneously getting world-class training. This camp gave me lots of freedom both inside and outside of training. As a pentathlete, I found the freedom to jump around to many different events to allow me to work on what I needed to work on the most. Outside of training, I really got to understand what it's like to be a college student. It's a one of a kind experience." - Camper

"Our son was impressed with the overall knowledge and commitment of the staff while attending the Duke Track Camp (Summer 2023). Upon returning home he gave us a thorough breakdown of the daily routine and what he learned from the coaches. He was also impressed with the speakers that were brought in to address the runners (Batman (US Olympian / Duke Baseball Coach (Mindset). He was pleased to see some of his fellow friends / competitors from NB Indoors and Outdoors who were in attendance and the number of runners who were outside of the East Coast. After training at Duke he stated how he is still committed to running at a high level at his future University he attends.

Thank You to the Duke Track Camp Staff as you provided training and knowledge and he continues to improve and follow his passion of running at the collegiate level." - Parent
