What Are Landsports Jobs at Summer Camp?
Landsports Jobs at Summer Camps
Landsports jobs at summer camps are perfect for multi-sport coaches, PE teachers, and college athletes who love variety on the field. From traditional sleepaway camps running daily landsports rotations to specialty residential athletics camps with structured multi-sport programs, landsports staff coach across soccer, lacrosse, football, basketball, baseball, and more in a single summer. If you grew up playing everything, this is a dream role.
As a landsports coach at an overnight camp, you’ll teach skills across multiple sports, run drills and games, support color war and championship events, and partner with specialist coaches on age-group rotations. You’ll work across age groups and abilities, from first-time players to seasoned youth athletes. Many co-ed residential camps build landsports as a central program area, giving coaches the chance to teach widely and grow into program leadership over multiple seasons.
What does a landsports coach at summer camp do?
You’ll coach across multiple sports — soccer, lacrosse, football, basketball, baseball — and run drills, games, and special events. Most sleepaway camps run landsports as a daily program area throughout the summer camp season.
What background works best for landsports jobs at sleepaway camps?
College, high school, or competitive club playing in multiple sports and prior coaching at the youth or school level are highly valued. PE teachers and multi-sport athletes are excellent fits at residential camps.
Do I need to coach every sport?
Not all of them, but multi-sport competence is the strongest asset. Many co-ed residential camps prefer landsports coaches who can credibly teach 3–5 sports at a youth level across the summer at the sleepaway camp.

Pay is competitive and commensurate with experience and credentials. Overnight camps include room, board, and laundry alongside salary, which adds meaningful value to the overall summer camp package beyond the base figure.

Yes — many residential camps hire international landsports staff through J-1 programs like Camp America, CCUSA, and Camp Leaders. Multi-sport coaches from around the world regularly work at sleepaway camps every summer.
