As summer approaches, many parents are searching for engaging, meaningful, and fun opportunities for their children. If you’re looking for esports or gaming camps nearby look no further than Metro Esports Summer Camp in Warminster, PA — a one-of-a-kind experience designed for kids who are passionate about video games, technology, and building real-world connections.
This isn’t your average summer camp. At Metro, we’ve created a full-day experience that blends competitive esports and hands-on tech exploration, giving kids the chance to level up both in-game and in real life.
A Unique Blend of Fun and Friendship through Gaming
Our Esports Summer Camps go far beyond the typical “screen time” experience. These gaming summer camps combine structured gaming activities with opportunities to develop teamwork, communication skills, and lasting friendships — all in a safe, inclusive environment nestled within the Warminster YMCA. Whether they’re building in Minecraft, teaming up in Fortnite, or competing in Rocket League, kids are learning to work together, support each other, and celebrate progress.
Logan McGowan, a Penn State Mechanical Engineering student and returning Metro camp counselor, reflects firsthand on the powerful transformations he’s seen the camps have on kids:
“My favorite part about the summer camps is definitely seeing the friendships that the kids build. It’s an amazing experience as the counselor to see the difference in the kids on the first day, when they’re nervous and timid about getting involved versus the end of camp when they’re all friends… Instead of asking me for help, they’re asking each other.”
For many young gamers, this is their first time making connections outside of school, and Logan captures the significance beautifully:
“I remember being a kid, and that feeling of making friends outside of school is just amazing and fulfilling. It’s amazing getting to watch friendships being made in real-time through these camps.”
Competition That Builds Confidence
Throughout camp, kids participate in bracket-style tournaments and challenges where they can earn points to win prizes like gift cards. While fun, these challenges aren’t just about winning — they’re about goal-setting, resilience, and teamwork
“It was really cool to me to see the kids get really engaged and focused-in on goals they wanted to accomplish, and work so hard to achieve them,” says Logan. “It got really competitive and was pretty close at the end — I almost wanted to give them all gift cards because I saw how hard they worked.”
This combination of friendly competition and personal growth sets Metro Esports apart from other video game camps or gaming workshops. Our campers take pride in what they accomplish — and we love seeing them support one another every step of the way.
High-Tech Gear & Hands-On Learning
Let’s not forget the thrill of using cutting-edge gaming gear! Metro Esports is fully equipped with high-end gaming PCs, professional headsets, and peripherals used by today’s top influencers and streamers. For many campers, it’s their first time experiencing this level of quality in person — and it leaves a lasting impression.
Logan highlights the experience beautifully of the kids interacting with professional gaming setups they’ve only ever seen on YouTube or Twitch:
“Getting to use the high-quality equipment really blows some of the kids away,” Logan says. “They see a lot of this equipment through influencers that they watch, so when they walk into the lounge and say ‘Wow, I actually get to use some of this?!’ — it’s really cool for me to see. It gives them a really special and important feeling, and it’s one of my favorite things to see each year.”
We make sure every camper feels like a pro — because to us, they are.
