The Ottawa Lions are excited to announce that registration is now officially open for our 2026 Summer Camps at the Terry Fox Athletic Facility.
Recognized as Canada’s #1 Track and Field Development Program, the Ottawa Lions Summer Camps provide youth aged 7–14 with a fun, safe and high-energy introduction to track and field – all led by passionate, certified provincial and national-calibre athletes and coaches.
With a maximum 1:10 coach-to-camper ratio, each participant receives meaningful instruction and personal attention while learning the fundamentals of sprinting, jumping, throwing and middle distance running.
