May - August 2019

The CEPSUM is the Centre d'Éducation Physique et Sportive de l'Université de Montréal. Inaugurated for the Montreal Olympic Games in 1976, it is today one of the most important sports complexes in Quebec. Every year, the CEPSUM offers themed day camps (athletics, self-defense, basketball, circus, cooking, swimming...) during the summer season for children aged 6 to 16. The animation of these camps is carried out by sports animators who are generally students at the Université de Montréal and members of a university sports team. 

My main assignments were to :

- Welcome, integrate and initiate children to sports activities according to their theme. 
- Develop, set up and run group activities
- Supervise and ensure the safety of the kids

This experience with youth has allowed me to develop my leadership skills, my organizational skills and my teaching abilities.

 

I would like to thank Nawfal Benmira (Yoda) director of the camps, and Ariane Pelletier (Bulle) assistant in charge of the day camps, for their trust.
