Join us during the school year for our innovative recreation programs for youth of all ages. Try out a new sport for the first time, or take your skills to the next level. 

Our programs take place on the iconic UC Berkeley campus and at the shores of the Berkeley Marina. Our instructors — leaders in their specialized areas and in the youth recreation field — have designed unique programs that offer opportunities for learning and growth, developing skills, making friends, and most of all, having fun. 

New name, same awesome camps and year-round programs!

Our new name, UC Berkeley Youth Recreation (formerly Cal Youth Programs & Camps), better describes what we do best. We provide a wide variety of year-round and summer experiences, sports, leadership opportunities and outdoor activities for all ages, led by high-caliber instructors and staff.
