We take people out of their comfort zones, using an unfamiliar environment, which enables them to understand the mental strength required to perform at the highest level. Our bespoke camps are designed using the following:

Cassius “Pushing The Limits” Test
The Cassius Challenge
Cassius Wild Fitness Circuits
Extreme Hill Bike Challenge
Escape The Island Adventure
Ultimate Kayak Experience
White Water Survival Challenge
Survive The Mountain Expedition
Cliff-hanger Challenge
Off-Road 4×4 Adventure
Night Survival
Cassius Triathlon

Our challenges bring the 12 pillars to life, and through expert facilitation we give your team the opportunity to improve in these areas. This accelerates awareness of what is required to reach and sustain peak performance.

Cassius Workshops

Cassius Camps offers a unique approach by embedding Mental Resilience and Life Skills Workshops within all programmes. All workshops are delivered by professional speakers in breathtaking outdoor locations.

The objective is to support the improvement of the 12 pillars by sharing personal stories, thus reinforcing the messages the trainers have worked on throughout each challenge that day.

Mental Resilience Workshops:

Mindset of a Champion
Winning Together
Leader’s Mentality
The Mindset to Overcoming Obstacles

Life Skills Workshops:

Define your Personal Brand
Shape your Future
Benefits of Good Nutrition

They Say

"A fantastic experience for the boys. Showing them what they are capable of & being able to go the extra yard is paramount for their development. It opened their eyes to the privileged position they are in, with the opportunity to have a career in a sport they love. Don't fail because you can't be bothered to push yourself!"
Neil Thompson - Sheffield Wednesday FC U23 Manager
"Toughest experience of my life. As tough as it was, the feeling you get when you complete a challenge that your body tells you that you can't do, is unbelievable."
George Hirst - Sheffield Wednesday & England U20
"Immensely proud of our club & the relationship we have built with Cassius Camps & its staff. A life changing event that will not only set us up for a memorable season but also set each of us up for life as better people."
Jon Whitney - Walsall FC Manager
It was a great experience and an opportunity to show what kind of person I am. I surprised myself as a person and how much I can push myself. It is the best experience of my life yet.
Ben Brereton - Nottingham Forest FC & England U19
Massive thank you to Cassius Camps for an unforgettable and enjoyable experience. Pushed to my limits both mentally and physically!
Stephen Kingsley - Scotland & Swansea City FC
“Challenging situations delivered by experienced staff in a fantastic setting in the Lake District. The Cassius team ensured our academy players were taken well and truly out of their comfort zone.”
Dean Ramsdale - Manchester City Academy
“Cassius Camps is a must for all professional sports people and teams from Academies to First Teams. The programme is very well structured and gives the individuals the opportunity to push themselves to the limits and beyond. I am in no doubt that the experience they had will benefit our young players this season and during their future careers.”
Nick Harrison - Preston North End FC Academy Manager
"Cassius Camps provided a day that took our players completely out of their comfort zone both mentally and physically. The day was structured and delivered in a very professional but fun manner. At the end of the day our players left with a huge sense of achievement and had developed a bond that will last for many years. It also gave them the knowledge that they can achieve anything with the right mentality and desire."
Michael Duff - Burnley FC U23 Lead Development Coach
"Cassius Camps tailor made a fantastic, challenging and unique experience for our staff and for our players. The challenges they were exposed to took them emotionally and physically to places way outside of their comfort zones, giving them an opportunity to grow. It gave our organisation a valuable insight into the deeper characteristics of our players as well as the players themselves developing resources and characteristic traits that will be valuable for their development and help them overcome future challenges."
Jack Lester - Nottingham Forest FC U23 Lead Development Coach
"Cassius Camps opened our eyes to some of the things we take for granted as professionals; the things that make us what we are. When you are tired you find out a lot about yourself. You discover what you can do with limited energy and see what energy comes from teammates too. You find out who wants to go the extra distance for their teammates and who doesn't."
Jon Wilkin - England & St Helens RL
"We know how important something like this is for the mental aspects of the togetherness of the group. They’ve been taken out of their comfort zone and they’ve been tested in what is a fantastic setting. The Cassius team asked me to take a step back and observe because you do see completely different things in situations like this. It’s nice to see the group motivate itself, and the pleasing thing is to see everyone buy into what they are being told.”
Keith Curle - Former England International & Carlisle United FC Manager
"You can’t replicate what Cassius Camps creates. They laid on extremely challenging situations which took our players completely out of their comfort zones. I’m confident now that when faced with difficult situations throughout the season our players will be able to draw on this experience."
Kieron Cunningham - Former GB International & St Helens RL Head Coach
“I never knew the consequences of projecting a poor personal brand and the impact it can have on a career. After the Camp, I committed to a personal brand that I now feel great about”
Sam McQueen - Southampton FC & England U-21s
“In all my career I’ve never seen such a unique and professional way of developing and finding the best in talent! Cassius Camps are a revolution.”
Paul Hart - Former Head of Leeds United Academy
“Cassius Camps provide a first rate, highly professional and unique experience. A thoroughly complete product delivered from a breathtaking location with outstanding facilities. Cassius have built from their cutting edge vision and now deliver what I believe to be an industry first.”
Adam Smith - Former New Zealand All Blacks Strength and Conditioning Coach
“Nike back innovative companies that add real value to the sports world! Cassius Camps creates a platform for talent to ‘Push The Limits’ in performance in a way we’ve never seen.”
