History/Philosophy
Physical Educators Lane Beatty and Connie Kommer created the Sports C.L.U.B. concept in Naples, Florida in 1998. Realizing the need for an improved Summer Sports Camp, Lane and Connie teamed up to form Sports Camp Inc., a non-profit organization. The idea was to offer children an opportunity to play several sports and participate in fun, popular neighborhood game choices. After building a successful Summer Sports Camp at Vineyards Elementary School, parents insisted that they follow up with Sports C.L.U.B. when school resumed from summer break. Homework Club was added to the program, hence Children Learning the Ultimate Balance between physical activity and academics.

Sports C.L.U.B started its after school programs at two sites in 1999 with a small group of students. Since then the program has grown immensely. Currently there are eleven different Sports C.L.U.B locations throughout Collier and South Lee counties, servicing over 1,000 students!!
